PROFILE

Evan Ortiz

Worked on the proveskit/circuitpy_flight_software repository to enhance the reliability and maintainability of embedded flight software. Focused on refactoring the Satellite initialization process by removing unused data buffers and directly instantiating the Satellite object, which simplified the startup sequence and reduced unintended side effects. Improved the boot process and error handling by resetting multiBitFlag to zero on overflow and incrementing the Satellite error counter directly, eliminating unnecessary conditional logic. These changes streamlined the boot sequence, improved fault visibility, and made the codebase easier to test. Utilized Python and embedded systems expertise, with a focus on firmware development for microcontrollers.

January 2025: Delivered critical refactor and boot improvements in proveskit/circuitpy_flight_software to enhance startup predictability, reliability, and maintainability. Implemented Satellite Initialization Refactor to remove unused data buffers and direct Satellite instantiation, simplifying startup and reducing side effects. Improved boot process and error handling by making multiBitFlag rollover 0 on overflow, incrementing Satellite error counter directly, and removing an unnecessary conditional reset of c_boot. These changes reduce latent bugs, streamline the boot sequence, and improve fault visibility in flight software.
