In January 2026, I delivered ONNX export support for the Cyrillic PP-OCRv5 mobile_rec model within PaddleX, tailored for Paddle 3.11 and CUDA 12. This included adding JSON-based metadata to manage exports and dependencies, and a targeted fix to allow ONNX export under the specific Paddle 3.11/CUDA 12 configuration (HPI-related gating). The work enables Cyrillic text recognition workflows, improves interoperability with ONNX-based deployments, and increases production readiness of PaddleX OCR pipelines across Cyrillic-language use cases.

For 2024-12, the key deliverable was the Telemetry privacy by default feature for ScoopInstaller/Main's vcpkg integration, disabling telemetry by default and offering an opt-in telemetry option. This privacy-by-default approach reduces data collection by default, boosting user trust and compliance with privacy standards. The change was implemented via commit 3bd4a9087360b768e2ecd8802e0d357221a0cb51 with message 'vcpkg: Disable telemetry by default (Closes #6413) (#6414)'. There were no major bugs fixed this month. Business impact includes improved user privacy, reduced data-collection risk, and smoother onboarding for privacy-conscious users. Technologies demonstrated include version control discipline, feature flag design, and a privacy-focused engineering mindset.
