• Distributed systems infrastructure and OS-level continuous integration platform

Aug 2011 – Jul 2014 · 2 yrs 11 mos · Berkeley, California

• Worked with the Nuclear Sciences Division on the MISTI/ARES/GRDC/RadMAP projects to build a cloud-based data analysis service for large multisensor measurement datasets using FastQuery indexing.
• Worked with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), Yonsei University, and the University of Michigan to integrate FastBit into the Astronomy Data Analysis Portal at KISTI to speed up attribute-based access to extremely large scientific data sets.
• Worked with the Accelerator and Fusion Research Division to add support for solving non-static 3D meshes to Warp, a PIC simulation package used for tracing ions to help design and layout beam lines for experiments with heavy-ion sources and ion extraction. Wrote simulation cases to help determine the exact ion beam parameters for maximizing Penning ion source plasma outputs.

• Worked with a team of health experts and programmers to deploy an MMS/SMS-based
• crowdsourcing service in Brazil and Mexico to track and eradicate the vector for the Dengue virus, Aedes Aegyptii.
• Added web-based social game component to the service to encourage and facilitate the crowdsourcing efforts to report and eliminate breeding hotspots for the dengue disease vectors. Provided SMS/MMS and data visualization services by using the BlueVia MMS/SMS API and Google Maps API client framework to the Rails platform backend.

• Worked on a Rails application for UC Berkeley's EECS Graduate Admissions Office that schedules meetings on Visit Day between candidate EECS graduate students and professors, and optimizes the schedule according to both students' and professors' preferences. Used a hybrid greedy search+genetic algorithm to generate the maximal optimum meeting solutions.

Dec 2010 – Aug 2011 · 8 mos · University of California, Berkeley

• Developed a C++ flexible-backbone protein-structuring software library based on a FORTRAN-written predecessor to model enzyme structural entropy.
• Used the library to guide directed evolution for enzyme design and implement new strategies for active site construction and protein scaffold selection to design non-natural enzymes for biofuel production. Worked towards simulating a flexible backbone model to account for protein cofactors.
