Worked on the google/benchmark repository to deliver a release-ready upgrade of the Benchmark library to version 1.9.4. This involved updating version references across CMakeLists.txt, MODULE.bazel, and the Python package’s __init__.py to ensure consistency in build and packaging workflows. The approach focused on aligning CMake and Bazel build systems with Python packaging, establishing a unified baseline for distribution. No critical bugs were addressed during this period, as the primary focus was on release engineering and cross-build compatibility. Utilized skills in build system management and version control, working primarily with Bazel, C++, and Python to support the release process.
