Summary Analytics Inc. (SMR.AI)

• Research And Development Engineer

  • Jul 2019 - May 2022

  • Conducted scientific research, adapting state-of-the-art publications to new data and integrating their methods with SMR.ai's summarization tools, including extensive hyperparameter tuning with multiple popular frameworks. Datasets included NLP, image classification, and automotive telemetry. • Created multiple containerized build and deployment environments for C++ packages with cross-platform support for Linux, macOS, and Windows using Docker, gRPC, Python, GNU Make. • Designed, created, and published a SageMaker Algorithm to AWS Marketplace that wrapped a C++ backend in a more accessible interface. • Updated a CMake build setup for a large C++ project to use modern target semantics and external package import mechanisms.

  • May 2016 - Apr 2017

  • in vivo deployment of novel therapeutic US treatment systems to analyze transducer design and optimization. Provided engineering consultation for new surgical protocols, equipment, and assays.• Implementation of big-data approaches to over five years of experimental records using R, Tableau, and MATLAB. Consolidated hundreds of scattered experiments into a centralized multivariate analysis which has allowed rapid insight and increased utilization of prior data.• Created and submitted a full-length manuscript that has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Controlled Release. In addition, I summarized and presented my research as talks to other experts in the field at several conferences Show less

• Research Technician

  • Feb 2013 - May 2016

  • Signal processing of ultrasonic cavitation effects for the optimization of a therapeutic ultrasound system• Design and prototyping of a semi-automated control and hardware solution for the generation of lipid-shelled microbubbles, using a range of skills spanning both electrical and mechanical engineering. Related experience includes pneumatic circuit design, control systems architecture, and embedded system development.• Detailed simulation of custom US transducer wave propagation across heterogeneous media, published as a poster and awaiting future publication. This research allowed our group an unprecedented diagnostic investigation into the true US conditions associated with our in vivo procedures. Show less
