Work
Experience

Alpha CubeSat - Space System Design 

2018 - Present

Attitude Controls Software Engineer

  • Completed development of a C++ Extended Kalman Filter on ACS that propagates the CubeSat’s body-frame magnetic-field precession and angular-rate dynamics via RK4 integration, fusing gyro + magnetometer data on a teensy 3.5 flight computer to deliver drift-free, real-time 6-state attitude updates during hardware-in-the-loop tests

  • Built a voltage & PWM calibration pipeline, fitting 3rd-order polynomials to sensor-fixed disturbances and reducing residual magnetometer bias to <5 µT on all axes

  • Conducted near frictionless air-bearing-rig tests demonstrating full detumble and spin-axis alignment under 5 minutes, and traced a “phantom-alignment” anomaly to magnetic coupling, prompting redesign

Guardian Life 

May 2024 - Aug 2024

Machine Learning Intern

  • Implemented a RAG model w/ Hugging Face Transformers and FAISS to enhance retrieval and generate contextual responses, optimized performance using PyTorch, and integrated w/ vector databases for efficient queries.

  • Developed an NLP script for classifying escalation reasons in customer conversations with the company’s chatbot, Hugo, leveraging DSPy and various LLMs (Amazon Bedrock, Titan, Claude, Llama) for optimized prompt generation and analysis, achieving 93% accuracy.

Cornell Mars Rover

Sept. 2022 - Present

Robotics Engineer

  • Designed teleoperation interface, facilitating communication and synchronized control linkage between Mars Rover Arm and designated controller with sub-second latency, using Python, C++, & ROS

  • Collaborated with cross-functional teams to develop sophisticated driver interface, advanced camera and laser aligning system, to enable precision and placement within 5mm when interacting with rover’s environment

  • Built robotic end-effector in Inventor to operate scientific instruments & physically interface with rover environment

Plastic Fischer 

May 2021 - Aug 2021

Engineer Intern

  • Developed and deployed waste collection solutions for polluted rivers in Indonesia, including a high-pressure release mechanism and a low-cost system for capturing waste at lower water levels.

  • Created MATLAB scripts to model stress distribution and dynamics of the buoy system, supporting 15% more

MIT Sea Grant 

June 2019 - Aug. 2021

Embedded Software Engineer Intern 

  • Built a cost-efficient Lagrangian ocean drifter for oceanographic exploration from ground up, designing custom PCB using Autodesk Eagle, reducing cost by 40% compared to off-the-shelf parts & 3D-printed chassis using Inventor

  • Programmed device in C++ to log water parameters and transmit data in real-time via RockBLOCK Iridium satellite module w/ global data access, implementing a low power state to optimize battery life.

  • Worked on front-end web interface, visually presenting precise geospatial data and sensor readings from drifter.

Kinetix

Dec 2023 - May 2024

Machine Learning Intern

  • Developed a classification engine using GPT API and Langchain to translate and classify RSS feed data into predefined topics, keywords, and companies of interest.

  • Enhanced classification accuracy and relevance by leveraging GPT-4 and storing data in structured JSON format using MongoDB, resulting in improved client email content distribution.

Lunar CubeSat: Cislunar Explorers

Sept. 2022 - May 2023

Software & Propulsion Engineer 

  • Developed Python-based simulation for propulsion flight with Agile methodology, modeling propulsive force generated by combustion firings; reduced computation time by 70%

  • Optimized electrolyzers w/ auto bleed valve to eliminate water from the O2 outlet; created CAD models for fuel tanks & developed MATLAB scripts to optimize nozzle geometry for improved propulsion efficiency.

  • Designed and modeled spin-stabilized propulsion system for a 12U CubeSat, ensuring constant electrolyzer contact and optimal gas-liquid separation through centripetal force.
