PROFILE

Nathan Brei

Worked on the eic/EICrecon repository, focusing on event processing, build system configuration, and software maintenance using C++ and CMake. Delivered a robust refactor of the Podio event pipeline by introducing an exception-free Emit() callback, improving control flow and reliability while maintaining core data handling. Addressed deprecation warnings and enhanced compatibility with JANA2 by updating constructors, include directives, and plugin initialization, which reduced build-time noise and improved startup stability. Implemented conditional test gating in CMake to support a smooth JANA2 upgrade path, ensuring backward compatibility and reducing regression risk. Prioritized maintainability, forward-compatibility, and stable development workflows throughout.

June 2025: Implemented deprecation warning mitigation in JANA JEventProcessor within eic/EICrecon. Replaced constructor usage with the default constructor and removed the JApplication pointer requirement, while preserving existing functionality. This reduces deprecation noise, simplifies future migrations, and improves maintainability and forward-compatibility in the data reconstruction pipeline.
