PROFILE
Dylanturpin
Worked on the newton-physics/newton repository to deliver two core features over two months, focusing on both robotics and backend infrastructure. Developed and refactored inverse kinematics (IK) examples for Franka and H1 robots, improving usability and maintainability through code restructuring, enhanced documentation, and CLI integration using C++ and Python. Additionally, implemented a caching solution for asset downloads from Git repositories, reducing redundant network calls and accelerating build times by storing assets in a permanent folder with update checks based on commit history. Emphasized code clarity, repeatable experimentation, and efficient onboarding, leveraging skills in code refactoring, backend development, and unit testing.
