Worked with the guidance of a senior developer to create a Linux Command Line tool that allows users to use UNIX commands like cp, ls, and cat on Amazon AWS S3 buckets. Used Python to implement command line a novel filename autocomplete feature, emulating UNIX auto-fill in a remote filesystem like rsync via boto3 to interface with Amazon S3. Implemented custom autofill behavior with Bash scripts to provide robust support for filenames including special characters (e.g. * & $ ”), and providing… Show more Worked with the guidance of a senior developer to create a Linux Command Line tool that allows users to use UNIX commands like cp, ls, and cat on Amazon AWS S3 buckets.

Implemented custom autofill behavior with Bash scripts to provide robust support for filenames including special characters (e.g. * & $ ”), and providing standard filesystem autocomplete in an hierarchical filesystem.Sped up compilation time of large C++ projects by 6x via distcc, ccache, redis, and Amazon EC2 auto-scaling groups. Designed a novel tool stack to distribute C++ compilation across compute resources, caching results both locally and on a remote Redis cache managed by AWS Elasticache. Augmented existing functionality of distributed C compiling tools by using an AWS Network Load Balancer allowing for dynamic host lists scaling with demand. Created an AWS cloud formation template for easy configuration and deployment.Designed built a parser for HOCON, a superset of JSON featuring substitution, file inclusion, object merging, array and value concatenation, as well as path expressions. Created a lexer and recursive descent parser from scratch in C++ to fully support all functionality} designated in the HOCON spec. Show less

Contributed to a college note storage web app, Triton Script, which allows students to pool notes for others to use. Worked with a team of 3 other developers to design a REST API using Express.js, allowing users to get and add notes to a database supported by MongoDB. Implemented GET and POST routes to filter notes by specific properties, and add new notes.

Worked in a CentOS 7 Linux Distribution developing faster CSV processing algorithms with Perl.Developed a script which sorted through 2+ million line order log files from the Chinese Stock Exchange and reconstructed order books based on log file data. Used novel algorithms and data structures to increase the processing speed of log files by 80% compared to predecessors. Designed a novel method of interpreting order and trade logs, additionally allowing for automatic verification and… Show more Worked in a CentOS 7 Linux Distribution developing faster CSV processing algorithms with Perl.Developed a script which sorted through 2+ million line order log files from the Chinese Stock Exchange and reconstructed order books based on log file data.
