Independent applicant portfolio · Hadrian

Software Engineer Intern

Operational software built around the people, data, and constraints of production.

I build interfaces, backend services, and operational data models with Python, TypeScript, Rust, and PostgreSQL. My experience spans shipyard planning, engineering analysis, and production systems, with responsibility for requirements, implementation, debugging, and validation.

Why I want to build at Hadrian

I want to build software that strengthens American manufacturing. Hadrian offers the opportunity to work on the applications, APIs, and data pipelines that help factories operate. I’m excited to contribute my experience in operational modeling and software development while learning from engineers delivering systems that production teams depend on.
