TDA Research

Research & Project Engineer

August 2015 – October 2017Golden, Colorado

At TDA Research I worked close to physical experiments and process equipment. The role combined research engineering with the practical work of making experimental data easier to capture, inspect, and use.

What I worked on

  • Connected CSV-based experimental data to InfluxDB and Grafana.
  • Built a C# Excel add-in for database connectivity.
  • Automated quoting workflows, reducing work that took hours to minutes.

What stayed with me

Small tools had disproportionate value here. Automating one awkward handoff or making one dataset visible could give researchers more time to focus on the experiment itself.
