David Lively
Worked on CesiumGS/cesium-native, delivering targeted improvements in geometry reliability, cross-platform compatibility, and build system modernization. Addressed edge-case failures in OrientedBoundingBox distance calculations by porting fixes from JavaScript, enhancing C++ unit tests, and improving code readability. Improved iOS asset loading by reintroducing file URI handling with preprocessor guards and resolving build errors for Xcode 16 and Clang 17. Enhanced runtime safety by adding null checks in resource destructors, reducing crash risk. Updated YAML-based build configurations to support macOS 14, streamlining continuous integration and DevOps workflows. Demonstrated strengths in C++, build systems, error handling, and cross-platform development practices.
