PROFILE

Zach Pearson

Worked on the RBVI/ChimeraX repository to deliver packaging and codebase improvements for the ChimeraX bundle builder, focusing on stabilizing build processes and enhancing reproducibility. Addressed packaging and dependency updates by aligning with modern Python tooling, normalizing wheel basenames per PEP517, and enabling the Python limited API. Modernized license handling to improve compliance and reporting. Undertook targeted code cleanup by removing deprecated scripts and reorganizing utilities, updating the Makefile to reflect new paths. Utilized Python, Makefile, and TOML to streamline build system configuration and maintenance, ultimately reducing build failures and accelerating onboarding for new contributors through improved maintainability.
