Worked on the Autodesk/hydra-viewport-toolbox repository, focusing on modularizing and improving the maintainability of the rendering pipeline. Refactored the lighting system by externalizing lighting state management, enabling a more modular architecture. Enhanced debugging for multithreaded C++ code by enabling TBB_USE_DEBUG in CMake-based builds, which improved reliability when diagnosing concurrency issues. Centralized task initialization parameters in the TaskManager, reducing configuration errors and supporting more robust workflows. Additionally, expanded test infrastructure by introducing a ColorWhite constant to TestHelpers.h, improving test determinism and coverage. Demonstrated expertise in C++, CMake, software architecture, and testing, delivering maintainable and reliable engineering solutions.
