• Contributed to the Native Client Platform team by developing a portable, low-level runtime in C & Rust that allows Disney's streaming applications to be streamed on high-end and low-end devices.• Implemented 150 new features, bug fixes, and internal tools in an Agile environment.• Developed a CLI tool to automate release verification to run across 10-15 supported devices simultaneously, resulting in a 100+ man-hour reduction per year in time and money. • Reduced the CI pipeline runtime by ~92% by removing bottlenecks between jobs and parallelizing long-running jobs.• Improved performance of the application by reducing text rendering time through implementing a cache to store the calculation results for quick retrieval, eliminating recalculation.• Reduced the memory footprint of HTTP requests, eliminating memory limitation issues.

• Supported development of a real-time simulation of the ISS Cargo Resupply (CRS2) guidance and navigation system.• Implemented Python scripts to query a database of messages used in the flight software to generate C++ code simulating the interfaces between the flight computers and various instruments/sensors.• Reduced total run time by ~80% by redesigning the simulation repository’s continuous integration pipeline. • Wrote 1,500 SLOC to generate simulation models for thousands of messages containing tens of thousands of fields, each needing its exposed interface from its model; this resulted in 1M+ lines of generated code delivered in a packaged simulation ahead of schedule.• Collaborated on a team effort to implement a simulation of the Trident missile using real hardware (EA and IMU).• Developed a model of the GPIB interface between the EA and a simulated device to support the calibration of sensors using C++.• Increased productivity by enhancing functionality to run 15+ deployment tests on the simulation.

• Led a sub-team to design and implement a plan for testing the flight software reprogramming code.• Implemented Python scripts to record algorithm data and execute closed-loop simulations of DASO27 test flights.• Developed post-processors and independent models of algorithm functionality in MATLAB to analyze recorded test data.• Boosted efficiency by leading the team to make testing more reproducible by enhancing and developing an automation infrastructure.
