PROFILE

Sonal Santan

Sonal Santan contributed to the Xilinx/XRT repository over four months, focusing on codebase refactoring, feature development, and build system stabilization. She improved code readability and performance by introducing const-correctness and string_view in C++, and enhanced maintainability through clang-tidy cleanups. Sonal delivered in-memory ELF object construction with Python bindings, enabling seamless integration and automation for ELF workflows. She strengthened HIP integration by refining kernel argument handling and updating CMake build logic for better discoverability. Her work also addressed build failures on RHEL by aligning submodule dependencies, demonstrating depth in C++, CMake, and embedded systems engineering across low-level and build domains.
