PROFILE

Austin Knutson

Worked on enhancing the KittyCAD/modeling-app by developing robust features for geometric modeling and 3D operations. Delivered comprehensive test coverage for KCL Geometric Boolean Operations, implementing simulation modules to validate parsing, unparsing, and execution paths, which improved reliability and regression protection. Introduced a tolerance parameter across 3D modeling functions, increasing precision and consistency while updating the test suite to ensure compatibility and robustness. Collaborated on groundwork for SSI integration, supporting future workflow enhancements. Utilized Rust, KCL scripting, and software testing methodologies to ensure stable, maintainable code, enabling safer refactors and accelerating the pace of future feature development.
