Software Consultant • CSCI370
Qualcomm • Boulder CO
August 2024 - Present
As a software consultant I was responsible for working on a team to develop a concurrent solution to Qualcomm's data collection script. The prior script ran by manually SSHing into each of their base stations (essentially a Linux server connected to a modem) sequentially and copying the data back to a csv file. This script was very slow and took about 5-6 hours to run. For our project we created a script that ran on each individual base station and made an HTTP request to send the required data back to the main server.
This project consisted of 4 main parts: writing the script, packaging it with RPM Package Manager (RPM), creating an API to receive requests from the script, and creating a database to store the data from the base stations.
Note: due to signing an NDA I am unable to discuss this position in more detail, all information discussed here is publicly available on the Mines CSCI370 website here
Engineering Intern
White River Technologies • Lebanon NH
May 2024 - August 2024
White River Technologies is a small research and development firm that specializes in geophysical sensors. + My main role was developing software to aid their electromagnetic sensor systems. Over the summer I completed several notable projects.
I developed a script to configure Windows tablets for deployment with their electromagnetic sensor system. This included installing necessary software to monitor EM data, changing network settings so the tablet could connect to the EM sensor, and setting up OpenSSH server to ensure remote access while the device was in the field.
I designed and implemented a PyQT GUI to provide a user friendly way to plan drone and underwater robot survey paths and output it to several different file formats. The GUI included an integrated leaflet.js map that could either use map tiles from the internet or allow the user to provide their own for offline use This GUI replaced the existing method of copying the coordinates manually into the code which was highly error prone.
I developed a GUI to modify the configuration file for their EM sensor systems and change the hardware settings. After changing the hardware settings the program read back the EM data stream and parsed it to ensure that the hardware settings were actually changed. This allowed them to not let clients have access to the configuration file which allowed them to restrict which values the clients can actually modify.
I enhanced their quality control GUI by adding functionality to manipulate different geographic file formats. The functionality allowed for conversion between .shp and .ply files and merging of multiple .ply files. I also parsed the coordinate reference system data from each file format to ensure that converted files were in the same UTM zone
