Young Engineers

Aiden

Fullstack Engineer

I developed a full-stack website using Go, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Tailwind CSS, focusing on creating a user-friendly interface for visitors and staff. To enhance user interaction, I integrated and trained an AI chatbot capable of answering company-specific questions, and I also created an admin panel that allows staff to efficiently add and manage summer camp projects. The scalable backend architecture I implemented ensures fast and reliable performance, accommodating future growth and increased traffic.

STEM Instructor

As a STEM instructor at Young Engineers during the summer semester of 2024, I introduced students to a range of foundational topics, from AI chatbot development in Python and basic RESTful APIs to core C++ concepts like OOP, memory allocation, and data structures. I also taught system administration fundamentals, including UNIX commands and SSH, and guided hands-on projects with electronics and formal logic using Minecraft gates. To address compatibility challenges with over 20 students’ varied systems, I implemented a VirtualBox server with SSH, inspired by Florida State’s Linprog server, creating a streamlined, consistent development environment.

AIM HI

Aiden

Software Engineering Intern

As a contributor to AIM HI's website development using React, I enhanced user engagement and functionality, creating a more dynamic online experience. I played a pivotal role in building AI image generation tools, which significantly improved product features and overall performance. By attending strategy meetings and communicating directly with potential customers, I gathered valuable feedback that aligned our development efforts with user needs.

Projects

Canvas

This project represents my endeavor to replicate the renowned grading platform "Canvas," showcasing my skills in both backend and frontend development. Utilizing C# for the backend, I integrated a REST API to ensure seamless data management, enhancing the overall functionality of the application. This comprehensive approach marks my first foray into full-stack development, reflecting my capability to handle large-scale projects that can serve millions of users effectively.

Ray Tracer

I constructed a ray tracer using the C++ language, showcasing my ability to translate complex mathematical concepts into practical applications. By leveraging my knowledge of vector algebra, I calculated ray paths to achieve realistic rendering effects. This project not only demonstrated my adaptability and quick learning in tackling new challenges but also expanded my proficiency in applying mathematical principles to solve real-world problems.

Chess AI | Under Development

Developed a chess engine in C++ using SFML, featuring a fully interactive board that highlights possible moves, validates move legality, and indicates check status in real-time. Planned enhancements include implementing a custom-built neural network to serve as an AI opponent, aiming for a responsive and challenging gameplay experience.

Spell Check

I developed a C++ spell checker that incorporates various algorithms for enhancing word correction efficiency. The project utilizes a dictionary file to validate words and employs several techniques, including character substitution, deletion, insertion, and swapping, to identify similar words based on user input. By leveraging the ftxui library for a user interface and implementing a high-performance backend, this application demonstrates my ability to combine programming skills with algorithmic thinking to solve real-world problems in text processing.

German Quiz Game

German Quiz Master is a Python-based educational quiz game that leverages the Dear PyGui library to test and enhance users' knowledge of the German language. By randomly generating German words and prompting users for their translations, this interactive game offers a fun way to improve vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. As a student who faced challenges in learning German, I developed this application to aid myself and others in studying more effectively and making language acquisition enjoyable.

Crab Tree

Crab Tree is a Rust-based remake of the classic tree data structure, designed to explore and implement advanced features and functionalities. This project showcases my proficiency in Rust while emphasizing the performance and safety benefits of the language. By enhancing the traditional tree structure, Crab Tree aims to provide efficient data organization and manipulation, making it a valuable resource for developers seeking to leverage the power of Rust in their projects.
