    Working in a sysadmin role on a variety of tasks including
    installation of the Sourcehut free software forge on the FSF
    infrastructure for evaluation for the FSF forge project, as well
    as a series of enhancements for
    \href{https://www.gnu.org}{www.gnu.org}.

    2018.
  \item[SE 463 (Software Requirements Specification and Analysis)] TA
    in spring 2019 and 2018.
  \item[CS 136 (Elementary Algorithm Design and Data Abstraction)] TA
    in winter 2018.

\end{itemize}

\subsection*{Software Engineering Lab, York University}
\begin{itemize}
\item
  \begin{description}[font=\mdseries]
  \item[summer 2017] Research Assistant

    Worked on an implementation of
    \href{https://bertrandmeyer.com/2014/12/07/lampsort/}{\textsf{Lampsort}}
    in Eiffel.  Extended the
    \href{https://svn.eecs.yorku.ca/repos/sel-open/mathmodels/}{\textsf{mathmodels}}
    library, implementing a \textsc{rational} class for working with
    arbitrarily large rational numbers.
  \item[summer 2016] Research Student

    Worked on \textit{Literate Unit-B}, the verifier for Unit-B, a new
    formal method focused on formal verification of reactive,
    concurrent and distributed systems.  From the Literate Unit-B
    codebase (written in Haskell), decoupled the logic module and used
    it to build \textit{Unit-B Web}, a web interface using Literate
    Unit-B to do predicate calculus proofs.  Unit-B Web, also written
    in Haskell, supports the \LaTeX{} syntax of the Unit-B logic,
    renders user input on the page, and calls the sequent prover of
    the logic module, which uses the Z3 SMT solver to check the
    validity of user input.

    Separated Literate Unit-B's type checker from its parser in a
    large refactoring, allowing easier substitution of other type
    checking algorithms, and in preparation for implementing
    subtyping.
