PROFILE
Joel Moriana
Worked on the carla-simulator/carla repository, delivering features and infrastructure improvements across build automation, CI/CD, and ROS2 integration. Over five months, contributed to cross-compilation and build system configuration using CMake and Docker, enabling smoother Unreal Engine and ROS2 interoperability. Enhanced deployment reliability by standardizing Python environments and Docker workspaces, and introduced manual GitHub Actions workflows for controlled UE4 and UE5 release cycles. Implemented asset compression for production builds, reducing load times and package sizes. Addressed system stability by refining toolchain integration and dependency linking, while also improving documentation and repository maintenance using Python, Shell scripting, and AWS S3 for automation.

Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Focused on standardizing CI/CD and Docker workspace for reproducible builds in carla-simulator/carla. Key changes include defaulting CI to Python 3.10, setting Docker workspace to /workspace, and updating file copy steps to ensure consistent development and testing environments. These changes reduce environment drift, accelerate onboarding, and improve reliability of automated tests.

Aug 1, 2025August 2025 — Achieved production-readiness enhancements and Linux UE5 CI/CD automation for carla-simulator/carla. Key deliverables include enabling default asset compression in shipping builds to shrink build sizes and speed up loads, and introducing initial UE5 Linux CI/CD workflows with a reusable Ubuntu build job for the CARLA client, Python API, and server, plus deployment configuration refinements. These efforts deliver tangible business value: faster user load times, smaller shipping assets, more reliable and faster release cycles, and a scalable CI/CD foundation.

Nov 1, 20242024-11 monthly summary for carla-simulator/carla: Delivered ABI compatibility fix and build system cleanup, improving cross-ROS2/Unreal integration, stabilizing build for ROS2 dependencies, and aligning with toolchain-based builds. Key improvements include removing GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0, refining Ros2Native CMakeLists to forward toolchain/build-type flags to external projects (foonathan_memory, fastdds), and updating libfastcdr runtime to 1.1.0. This work enables smoother CI, reduces build failures, and accelerates feature delivery across the ROS2-Unreal integration.
