At United Launch Alliance, I modernized cloud development workflows with AWS Lambda, Terraform, and Docker, improving deployment speed and scalability for ground systems.

I rewrote Python network-switching code in C++ on Linux, validated it through integration testing, and added launch-operator functionality that reduced downtime by 80 hours per month. I also supported launches and monitored rocket systems in real time during critical events.

I built Python and C++ unit-test suites and introduced the company’s first GUI testing with Squish in the CI/CD pipeline, reducing code-review time. Previously at Verus Research, I built software and hardware automation for RF-device characterization using Python, SCPI-controlled lab equipment, and PID temperature control.

I also developed Thrifty Throttle, a car-data analytics web application using React, TypeScript, Flask, PostgreSQL, Chart.js, Nginx, and Gunicorn. My earlier work includes probe-launch and sensor-communication research at Luminosity Lab and component-level aviation electrical maintenance in the US Navy.
