PROFILE
Chris Ford
Worked on the slac-lcls/lcls2 repository to deliver two backend features focused on data acquisition and configuration management. Developed timed data acquisition run capabilities using Python and Bash, enabling controlled, repeatable campaigns with configurable duration, host selection, and optional data recording. Centralized configuration handling and improved documentation to reduce operator error and support reliable campaign execution. Later, updated BOS configuration CSVs to define connections and port summaries, ensuring accurate system configuration and supporting scalable deployments. Emphasized configuration management, scripting, and system administration throughout, validating changes to improve runtime reliability and laying the foundation for future enhancements in the DAQ system.
