PROFILE
Kailee Santucci
Kailee Santucci developed and enhanced embedded firmware for the concordia-fsae/firmware repository, focusing on automotive control systems and real-time hardware integration. Over four months, Kailee implemented features such as 5V PDU voltage sensing with CAN Bus reporting, runtime task stack usage monitoring for RTOS-based components, and responsive user input handling through refined debounce timing. Using C, Buck, and YAML, Kailee addressed cross-platform build consistency and improved system observability, safety, and user experience. The work demonstrated depth in embedded systems engineering, combining hardware interfacing with robust software design to deliver reliable, maintainable solutions for vehicle control and monitoring challenges.

Jan 1, 2026January 2026: Delivered a new user-driven target slip adjustment feature in the torque management system for concordia-fsae/firmware. Implemented signals for slip increase and slip decrease, refined torque evaluation, and added a timer to apply smooth, controlled slip target changes to improve traction and stability. Commit 7537ddd61b7c8a3aa5528b54c66f9032cae9f2dc. Business value: enhances vehicle handling and safety during acceleration and transitions, enabling faster, more reliable tuning for variable track surfaces. Technical impact: demonstrates robust real-time input handling, improved torque evaluation, and a timer-driven target update mechanism. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was feature delivery and system stabilization. Next steps: monitor field performance, explore configurable slip targets, and expand test coverage.
