• Writing code utilized by graduate students to write their theses.

• Contributing and writing components for Hetero-Mark, a High Performance Computing (HPC) benchmarking suite funded by the HSA Foundation.

Student Cluster Competition (Competed 4 times at SC 2015/16/17, ISC 2017)

• Built custom supercomputers from scratch to run scientific datasets as quickly and efficiently as possible

• Achieved the competition record of the HPCG benchmark at ISC'17 in Frankfurt, Germany

• Awarded 5th place out of 16 teams at SC'17 in Denver, CO

• Evaluated performance of scientific applications and optimized them for the system

• Won the "MacGyver Award" for sourcing and building an HPC cluster in 6 hours at SC'15 in Salt Lake City, Utah after our original system was lost in the mail

Helped design and implement microservices to replace a legacy monolith tax return filing system that supports millions of TurboTax users. Worked extensively with Spring, different types of databases (Oracle, Couchbase, DynamoDB), AWS, and J2EE. Also contributed to a system for managing database transactions across multiple data sources for robust and fault-tolerant operation.
