Apple | Health Technologies R&D Engineering Co-Op

Sunnyvale | Jan. 2025 - Aug. 2025

- Built a Python image analysis library with 11 modules, handling preprocessing of RAW & Apple-internal image formats in addition to leveraging color science & OpenCV to evaluate the colorimetric performance of multiple image processing pipelines in development
- Abstracted complex image analysis workflows into two simple CLI tools for end-user accessibility
- Refactored codebase to reduce analysis time by ~98% during multi-region analysis per image
- Assembled portable fixture and wrote controls library utilizing OOP & coroutines for a linear actuator to enable various potential human studies in a new lab, saving the team $100k+ in equipment cost
- Integrated linear actuator and robotic arm programs with scripted image collection and streamlined data offloading, sorting, parsing, & reconfiguring to reduce human study visit time by ~33%
- Lead repo collaboration using git branches, standardized module documentation, and readable code
- Managed human study logistics, visit execution, and data labeling to provide a ML classification model test set, along with assisting in FA to pinpoint specific data needs for model aggressors
