Scientific Computing Graduate
-
Jul 2018 - Jan 2020
Undertook four six-month projects and one three-month external placement on computing for scientific research, as part of the STFC graduate scheme. Developed a wide range of software engineering skills, from web development and REST API frameworks to the basics of database management and HPC, plus peripheral tools such as Docker and continuous integration solutions. • Wrote a Jenkins plug-in for running software tests on HPC, which is now live on an STFC service. • Used CASTEP to model the behaviour and possible structures of materials involved in a hydrogen storage reaction, the results of which are in preparation for publication. • Developed the ‘multi-VO’ feature for the Rucio open-source software; this feature allows a single Rucio instance to support multiple virtual organisations and is now being used at STFC to support collaborator experiments. • Performed full-stack Agile development for DAFNI (Data and Analytics Facility for National Infrastructure), completing several features that had been highly requested by users. • Participated in public engagement activities, mostly with primary school children, totalling over 50 hours in the 2018/19 academic year (reduced in 2019/20 due to secondment abroad followed by COVID-19 restrictions). • Supervised a team of work experience students for a programming project during STFC’s Engineering Experience Week 2019 (could not repeat in 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions) Show less

Digital Feedback System Intern
-
Jul 2017 - Aug 2017
Developed software for lecturers to make the process of writing feedback faster and more consistent. Learned web development skills (HTML, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery) from scratch, self-teaching throughout the project. Built software from a basic starting point, including a highly intuitive user interface and a functional, scalable back-end; gained positive feedback from all trial users. Worked with a high degree of autonomy, selecting priorities and solving problems independently. Developed software for lecturers to make the process of writing feedback faster and more consistent.

Maple TA Intern
-
Jul 2016 - Sep 2016
Worked in a team to code randomly-generated, automatically-graded mathematics questions, that are now being used for student assessment and revision at both the University of Birmingham and an external client. Learned development on the Maple TA and Möbius platforms from scratch. Tested questions for bugs thoroughly, often flagging issues that others had missed.
