Message

At Microsoft, I engineered software components and automated test suites for the Xbox division using C++ and PowerShell, with AI-assisted tools supporting development, debugging, and test execution.

At Intel Corporation, I developed Python and C++ tools to filter invalid wafers in automated hardware testing workflows, improving test pipeline efficiency. I also authored and maintained test cases for the open-source Visual Data Management System (VDMS) project.

At JMD Mobile Solutions, I developed multithreaded C++ modules for analytics and property reports using GIS, satellite imagery, and solar irradiance data. I also engineered a file-compression tool that reduced compression time by up to 50% and built Go backend microservices for report-generation software.
