I'm Noah, and I'm in my junior year of college, studying CIT with an emphasis on computer application development.

On the side, I take on projects involving software, mechanical and electrical design, and I enjoy pushing myself to learn new things (bet you've never heard that one before).

5 years of professional desktop and embedded systems development experience using C++11 and C++20

  • Designed and implemented a custom websocket library for C++, enabling secure communication from low-level code
  • Developed an open-source framework for quickly implementing neural networks for value prediction algorithms in C++
  • Developed robust, modular firmware compatible with a wide range of Bluetooth keyboards (both existing and custom)
  • Designed and implemented a filtering algorithm for preventing false-positives in low-latency video object detection workflows in OpenCV (C++)
  • Designed and deployed software debugging tools utilizing immediate-mode GUI libraries such as imgui
  • Familiar with graphics APIs such as DirectX 9, 11, 12, and OpenGL 3

4 years of experience using web development technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript)

  • Designed many aesthetically-pleasing pages using modern web technologies
  • Created multiple highly successful webapps, handling hundreds of users at times

Web applications, servers/hosting (AWS, Azure, etc.), databases (MongoDB, MySQL), backend infrastructure/security, and CI/CD automations

  • Designed and utilized robust backend infrastructure responsible for managing many servers at a time
  • Implemented CI/CD automations so that servers automatically pull and deploy updated code from source control platforms when needed
  • Implemented a capable load-balancing system for databases in MongoDB
  • Created and deployed automations to audit code for known vulnerabilities, and automatically push fixes when necessary
  • Used best-practices when designing webserver infrastructure, resulting in servers capable of handling thousands of requests per minute
  • Deployed URL blacklists and IP-based rate limiting to prevent common web scrapers and other unwanted traffic

skills

  • Proficient in C++, Java, JavaScript, C#, and Python
  • Experienced with modern IDEs (Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, IntelliJ)
  • Experienced with source control platforms (git, GitHub, GitLab)
  • Experienced administering Linux servers and infrastructure (Arch Linux, Debian)
  • Familiar with CAD/EDA software packages (Autodesk Fusion, Inventor, Altium Designer, CircuitMaker, EasyEDA)
  • Familiar with robotics simulation tooling and scene-description formats (NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac Lab, URDF)
  • Familiar with reverse-engineering and software protection techniques
