Hi! I’m Sam, a software engineer based in Berkeley, CA. I specialize in building high-performance systems with a focus on correctness. My background in applied mathematics and computer science has exposed me to complex technical challenges in areas like distributed systems, computer graphics, and algorithm development.

Background

I hold a Master’s in Computer Science & Applied Mathematics from Lund University, where I focused on signal processing, control theory, and network dynamics. My thesis explored methods for reducing polarization in opinion networks.

Previous Work

I’ve worked on various projects across different domains:

• Built a high-performance, cross platform UI Engine in Rust at Pax
• Developed novel image processing algorithms for X-ray spectroscopy at MAX IV Laboratory
• Built data migration workflows at Accenture
• Created educational physics software for the Department of Atomic Physics at Lund University

Some Notable Projects

• Orchestration Database: A high-IO system in Rust implementing concurrent chat and distributed speed camera systems
• Mesh-rand: An open-source Rust library for efficient random point generation on 3D meshes
• Educational Optics Suite: A collection of interactive web tools helping students learn physics and optics
• Laser Focus Prediction: A diagnostics program implementing Galton-Saxton iteration for laser beam focus prediction
