Keeling Labs increases the revenue of grid-scale batteries by optimizing how they buy and sell power with machine learning. We’re bringing the latest in reinforcement learning to a rapidly growing $2B+ market, backed by years of experience applying ML for batteries at Rivian.Backed by Y Combinator (W23)

Irvine, CA, US

- Started the ESS Data Science team in 2020, which grew to 9 members by my departure- Proposed, lead, and delivered a project to apply deep reinforcement learning to DC fast charging optimization. Demonstrated a 5m+/12% reduction in charge time on vehicle in final sim-to-real validation.- Created a highly scalable, cloud-based RL training system from.

Irvine, CA, US

Algorithms & Controls Work: - Collaborated with the Cell Engineering Team, Thermal Management Team, and Energy Management Team to develop our charging controls on the BMS. Based on extensive cell testing and vehicle validation data, this control system determined the instantaneous current limit for the battery when charging (both DC Fast Charging and AC.

Irvine, CA, US

- Built a data analysis program in Python and SQL to analyze cell voltage imbalance in prototype vehicles, along with various other performance parameters- Designed a controls system for DC Fast Charging on the Battery Management System using Simulink and Stateflow- Determined the isolation resistance of battery modules by designing and carrying out.

Durham, North Carolina, US

- Conducted primary research on the upcoming CORSIA offset market (Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation) and the capacity bidding process in the PJM Interconnection (Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland)- Created a speculative Congestion Revenue Right trading strategy for the ERCOT market (Electric Reliability Council of Texas).

- Researched solar economics, securities trading infrastructure, and blockchain technology to determine the implementation constraints and financial feasibility of a stock market for energy infrastructure (DIFEI)- Modeled a multi-axis-tracking photovoltaic solar farm using NREL’s System Advisory Model Software to demonstrate an asset on the framework’s.

- Co-founded a mobile app company that launched two apps (Packup & Lookabout)- Managed a team of three, was responsible for product design, business partnerships, fundraising, and distribution- Analyzed usage data in Flurry and AppBoy to make data-driven product rollout decisions- Lookabout (360° photo-sharing) got over 1,000 users in more than 10.

- Developed a Matlab data visualization tool to expedite data analysis for the group’s development of a nanoscale magnetic sensor- Created a multivariate chi-squared estimation algorithm in Matlab to solve for sensor parameters using free-induction decay and spin-echo data- Assisted three graduate students in lab operations and tested various equipment.
