Vehicle Dynamics

At Berkeley Formula Racing, I closed the loop between a lap simulator and a physical car using logged data and driver feedback. The current project reverses the arrow and adds rigor: instrument the real car, then fit the model to what it measured.

  • 01

    Rebuilt the camber compliance measurement rig.

  • 02

    Ran back-to-back configuration testing in dynamic sessions, merging logged data from the electrical and engine subsystems to evaluate changes.

  • 03

    Iterated the car against the team's MATLAB 7-DOF lap simulator and driver feedback; helped other subsystems validate design decisions.

Work

01 / SYSTEM DELIVERY

Sahur Tech LLC

Embedded with a manufacturing and R&D client. I identified operational bottlenecks, scoped solutions, and owned delivery from discovery through deployment and support while managing a two-person delivery team.

One workflow connected iPad visitor sign-in to Slack notifications and automated label printing through a containerized local service.

02 / MARKETPLACE

Resound

Co-founded a peer-to-peer musical instrument lending marketplace — Top 10% of YC S25 applicants.

As CTO I built the full stack: Next.js and TypeScript on MongoDB with Prisma, Stripe Checkout for payments, Google OAuth, Socket.io messaging between lenders and borrowers, and Leaflet geolocation search.

03 / ANALYTICS INFRASTRUCTURE

Finfare

Built an internal analytics platform tracking company KPIs and OKRs, with data pipelines consolidating fragmented sources into a unified real-time reporting and visualization interface.

Automated, configured, and deployed AWS cloud infrastructure; practiced Agile/Scrum and collaborated with UX designers on dashboard frontends.

04 / INSTRUMENTATION TOOLCHAIN

How I build

I use Codex and Claude Code for development. I run parallel agents through cmux, with a launcher repository that manages agents into working repos. The terminal-native workflow keeps one-person instrumentation projects moving quickly.
