Worked on the pypeit/PypeIt repository over a two-month period, focusing on both infrastructure and instrumentation improvements. Developed and integrated automated testing workflows using GitHub Actions and YAML, enhancing CI/CD reliability and accelerating feedback for code changes across branches. Addressed instrumentation needs by delivering a targeted Python patch that adjusted calibration parameters and disabled specific image processing features, enabling the MDMOSMOS spectrograph to operate reliably for the first TDE observation. Demonstrated a methodical approach to version-controlled changes, rapid response to instrument requirements, and close collaboration with the instrument team, with work spanning Python development, data calibration, and spectroscopy.
January 2026: Focused on enabling the MDMOS spectrograph for the first TDE by delivering a focused bug fix to calibrations and selective feature toggling. The patch stabilizes OSMOS operation for initial observations, minimizing risk of data gaps and ensuring readiness for the TDE campaign. This work demonstrates targeted calibration control, rapid response to instrument needs, and strong collaboration with the instrument team.
