PROFILE
Max West
Max West developed core features for the Smithsonian/layup repository, focusing on C++ and Python integration for orbital mechanics workflows. He exposed the Orbit Fit functionality through a Python API using Pybind11, refactored bindings for maintainability, and resolved dependency issues to stabilize builds. Max extended the repository with a Prediction API, introducing batch prediction and NumPy-to-Eigen conversion utilities to support scalable inference. He also integrated an autodiff library as a git submodule, establishing automated test coverage with Python. His work emphasized robust build systems, modular code organization, and cross-language readiness, laying a solid foundation for future extensibility and reliability.
