Worked on the open-telemetry/opentelemetry-cpp repository, focusing on scalable telemetry export and build system modernization. Developed a shared gRPC client model for OTLP exporters using C++ and reference counting, which reduced duplicated connections and improved resource utilization in multi-exporter pipelines. This architectural change simplified client lifecycle management and enabled better scaling for telemetry workloads. Additionally, upgraded the build system by raising the minimum CMake version to 3.10 and applying new policy updates, enhancing compatibility and long-term stability. The work demonstrated expertise in C++, CMake, and gRPC, contributing to more robust, maintainable, and efficient telemetry infrastructure and build processes.
