Work

  • 2024 - 2024
    Intern
    Equatorial Space Systems
    Interned at Equatorial Space, a private rocket company for 20 weeks in Fall 2024.
    • Designed the Deployer board, a high power PC/104 form factor compatible printed circuit board for actuating high current deployment events in sounding rockets
    • Developed a Python-based Software-in-the-Loop test software to transform past flight data into simulated sensor inputs, which is then used to validate the behavior of the flight software
    • Developed several key drivers in C++ for the Dorado sounding rocket's flight computer, including the driver for the Deployer board, to established high reliability code standards (e.g. MISRA C++)
  • 2018 - 2018
    Intern
    Satellite Research Center (Nanyang Technological University)
    Interned at the Satellite Research Centre (SaRC) in NTU for 6 weeks during the March-April semester break to gain a deeper understanding of micro/nanosatellite engineering.
    • Developed the ORBITAL, a cross-platform desktop application written in Java to help highlight anomalies in satellite orbital data of the VELOX-II nanosatellite
    • Wrote a proposal and feasibility evaluation for HopeSat-1, an educational 1U CubeSat
  • 2018 - 2019
    Intern
    Earth Observatory of Singapore
    Interned at the Earth Observatory of Singapore in NTU for 22 weeks, and assisted in the consolidation and stabilization of the Microsoft Azure port of the Hybrid Science Data System (HySDS), working in collaboration with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). HySDS is a highly scalable, hybrid cloud platform for scientific computation, with a particular focus on processing data from earth observation satellites.
