• Build and deploy Docker containers hosting microservices such as SFTP and Python script servers, increasing scalability and optimizing speed.• Maintain scripts that process VM metadata with Python and Google BigQuery.• Build and manage virtual machine images/instances hosting Geotab’s cloud services on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) with Powershell, Bash.• Build CI/CD pipeline using Gitlab

- Develop and test real-time image segmentation solutions using deep learning in Pytorch. Deploy the product into web browser environments using ONNX, Tensorflow.js, etc.

• Proposed and implemented a reinforcement-learning based approach to control robots during its interaction with humans. It enables robots to improve interaction behaviors learned from the interaction process. • Cooperate with another team to create an interactive sculpture/robot, which was exhibited at the Royal Ontario Museum. Collected data shows increasing the interactions between the sculpture/robot and human visitors by 35%.• Developed a simulator with Unity in C# that allows experiment prototyping and algorithm validation. It is the fundamental platform in future research.

Burlington, Ontario

• Participated in design improvements of the bandwidth meter which is part of a FPGA-based server handling high bandwidth (100+ Gb/s) streaming data. The improved design accommodates different communication protocols.• Designed a sample data generation and validation module for the FPGA-based server. Data content is customizable through API, making self-debugging time-efficient and independent of external test sources.

• As a primary designer in the team, implemented the battery management system (BMS) for the household humanoid robot, which provides battery level monitoring, overcurrent/overvoltage protection, charge/discharge protection and low power mode. Responsible for BMS design and PCB design and testing.• Improved integration and capacity of motor control ICs and integrated position sensors of robot joints onto PCB, reducing the occupying space of PCB by 50%.

Ottawa, Canada Area

• Worked in a team that researched and developed solutions to include Internet of Things (IoT) cloud service into the product (SaaS/PaaS), which was deployed successfully on IBM's cloud platform Bluemix.• Developed a scalable, light-weight IoT device simulator in Java using MQTT protocol, serving as a test and validation tool for the deployed IoT service.

Toronto, Canada Area

• Designed web pages and web applications used by ScotiaBank and other companies using JavaScript, PHP and HTML.• Performed cross-browser and cross-device testing for products, ensuring users can access the websites properly with different browsers and screen shapes.• Performed accessibility test of websites and fixed issues, ensuring websites are accessible to users with disabilities.

Toronto, Ontario, Canada

• Worked in a team managing the company's website and developer forum (1000+ users). Perform maintenance and updates using HTML/CSS, JavaScript, C# in ASP.NET MVC framework.• Created a web application interface allowing webpage graphic designers to upload and preview their designs. It greatly improved work efficiency and received high recognition from the design team.• Bridged between web developers and graphical designers to provide the best quality of website designs.
