Hello, my name is
Sam Gebra.

I create software and make robots.

I am a software engineer and a data scientest, with master's degree in Computer Science, specialized in Software Engineering.

home  Experience

keyboard_arrow_right Set to revamp legacy C++ code that served as middleware between legacy military equipment and modern computing systems running Windows and Linux.
keyboard_arrow_right Created the foundation of the extended reality virtualization for VOTs (Virtual Operator Trainer), this application is planned to vastly increase mobility, scalability and users knowledge retention.
keyboard_arrow_right Acquired additional certificates to assist with my tasks at TSET (Training Systems Engineering Team): A+, Network+, Security+, CCNA, CISSP

keyboard_arrow_right Solely developed a complete software system (frontend & backend), automated several tasks previously done manually. Produced unified platform with UI, and backend server, increased productivity by 1800% (reduced over 3 hours of daily manual work to 5-10 min of automated-click-of-a-button results).
keyboard_arrow_right Designed flight-logger software for Qualcomm UAV, records flightpath captured through sensors data-feed streamed over ROS and output the coordinates both in real-time and as JSON file to emulate previous flight failures, improving issue-reporting by 30%.
keyboard_arrow_right Re-customized pre-existing test-framework-script to specific case scenarios for debugging efforts, pinpoint issue root-causes and reduce resolution cycle time by 50%.
keyboard_arrow_right Carried out various software feature integration and test environment set-up(s) creating and executing test scenarios interacting in a team environment with system developers. Identifying 12k CRs (Change Requests) per snapdragon chipset-target SoC (System on a Chip), improving quality by establishing goal MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) from less than 1 hour to over 50 hours.
keyboard_arrow_right Led the annual android tech-areas meetings, identified new FRs (Feature Requests) per new Qualcomm target, promptly updating the software testing framework (to accommodate the new features) improving productivity by 30%.
keyboard_arrow_right Calibrated and utilized the UAV motion-capture arena, calculated error-margin for the drone flightpath. Published a bi-weekly report of over 200 test cases focused on the snapdragon navigator parameters, API functionality, internal cameras, flight control, and event logger.
keyboard_arrow_right Managed over 200 servers (each has prototype android-platform-chipset connected), streamlined systems upkeep, bring-up upon failure and validation continuously for an uninterrupted testing, upgraded farm size and overall testing capacity and effectiveness by 40%.

home  Projects

keyboard_arrow_right Utilizing Transformers library, I created a conversational AI ChatBot that mimics a given character. The character can be fictional, training data will be scraped from the books or noval source material; or Real (concentual) person, training material will be scraped from said person's online conversations, with their concent (Python, PyTorch, Pandas, NumPy, Transformer).

keyboard_arrow_right Currently working on deploying the conversational bot, created from previous project above, on to a hexapod robot powered by ROS with RPI5 board and multiple sensors (camera module for objects detection, sonars ranging module, and IMU; planning to add infrared laser scanner for path tracking and capacitive touch sensor), and two output methods for user-feedback, dual-display modules (used as eyes most of the time), and one microphone module, this is my most ambitious project yet and I am very excited to work on it.

keyboard_arrow_right As part of my Master's graduation project, I created a Mixed Reality table-top game, a Dungeons and Dragons setup in a VR environment (Unity, C#). As an avid DnD player, I continued to improve this XR application adding more content, quests and QoL features.

keyboard_arrow_right During my tenure at Qualcomm, developed several webpages all are complete system tools with backend framework packing a dedicated database management system (Python, Django, RESTful API, JavaScript, SQL, Docker, JIRA, Git).
