Worked on the spack/spack-packages repository to deliver the Hashcat 7.1.2 release, introducing optional Python and Rust variants to expand deployment flexibility. Focused on refining the build and installation workflow by ensuring the SHARED=1 flag was applied only during the build phase, which reduced the runtime library footprint. Updated release assets and URLs to maintain reliable downloads and improved compatibility with recent Hashcat versions through targeted packaging and script adjustments. Utilized C, C++, and Python development skills alongside expertise in build systems and package management to enhance variant support, streamline maintenance, and improve traceability and documentation of release changes.
