The High Energy Physics lab is tasked with the assembly of monitored drift tubes for the upgrade to the muon spectrometer at the ATLAS experiment, the largest of the 4 experiments on the Large Hadron Collider. The largest particle accelerator in the world, this instrument forever changed our understanding of subatomic particles. Every one of these tubes has to be incredibly precisely made and tested, and have a high failure rate. Implemented a database system overhaul to improve it's performance, access, and reliability, as well as created an automated wire tensioning system to improve precision and consistency in the process.

This application is still in use, and I still do intermittent development work for them remotely.

Experience in developing applications and software, on commission or as a volunteer. Highlights include a player sorting and matchmaking program for a tournament, mobile application for high school Robotics teams scouting other teams, and a JavaScript integrated Google Sheets application for efficient small-scale data collection and analysis.

Senior Programmer for a world class high school robotics team. Worked extensively on the General Motors Proving Grounds as well as mentored by software engineers employed by General Motors. This emphasized solving complex problems, often on a short notice or with a deadline.
