From May to December 2025, I completed an 8-month co-op at D-Wave Quantum Systems in Burnaby, BC, where I worked as a full-stack software developer on cryogenic control systems for quantum computers.
I developed a scalable asynchronous Python server for cryogenic fridge control, interfacing with 10+ SCPI and Modbus devices via a REST API to automate test procedures and log telemetry to an InfluxDB time-series database. On the front-end side, I designed 3+ UI applications in Plotly Dash for remote monitoring, real-time data visualization, and control of server operations.
I also implemented unit tests using Pytest and Mock framework, increasing test coverage and refactoring the codebase for maintainability. Beyond my core responsibilities, I contributed to the open source PVAccess for Python (P4P) library on GitHub, extending the NTTable normative type to support flexible field initialization and unifying API behavior with NTScalar.
This experience deepened my skills in full-stack development, asynchronous programming, and working at the intersection of software and hardware in a quantum computing environment.
