Experience
Software Engineering Intern
Jun 2023 — Present · Hawthorne, CA, US
Worked on user terminal software team at Starlink developing software directly implemented on over 2 million satellite dishes across the globe. Created onboard calibration system allowing for incorrectly calibrated dishes in the field to be fixed without needing to be sent back to the factory. Resulted in over 0.5 dB SNR improvement across the globe and cut down factory calibration time by over 37 percent. Developed uplink SNR telemetry prediction to allow for more accurate predicted telemetry and improved reactive switching of satellite beams. Built granular telemetry system to allow for different levels of telemetry to be toggled, saving tens of thousands in server costs from telemetry overload.
