Hi, I'm Ishaan!

I'm a full-time student at Oregon State University, majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I've worked with C, C++ and Python and have some experience in web development (HTML, CSS, and Javascript). Outside of programming, I spend my free time breathing new life into technology that would have become e-waste.

experience

internship @ persimmons

July 2026 - August 2026

Migrated infrastructure into data center, to give clients better access to resources previously limited by cooling constraints
Set up and configured cluster computing using Slurm to allow an even distribution of computing resources to developers
Designed plugins for AI Agents to interface with Slurm for more efficient workflows
Created web-based frontend for Slurm to track running processes. It served as a replacement for the CLI tools that already exist but were hard to visually parse.

internship @ thelios

June 2024 - July 2024

Designed the training data for an AI model that analyzes volleyball games. The model was built to track how each player on the court performed throughout the game, as well as to predict potential injuries before they happened.

first robotics competition

team #9634: zero tolerance

December 2023 - May 2024

Designed and mounted vision hardware onto the frame of the robot
Delegated tasks across the software team to ensure deadlines could be met despite the small number of team members
Use the IMU and camera data from an Xbox Kinect to run the robot autonomously through the detection of April Tags

team #299: valkyrie robotics

July 2022 - June 2023

Assisted with testing of computer vision system
Documented existing code and established system for the documenting of future code
Wrote tests for superstructure collision, which kept track of the physical locations of the robot's arm and shooting mechanism to avoid causing any internal damage.
Assisted in the wiring of the robot

projects

Highighted below are projects that demonstrate my skills with C, C++, Python, and systems-level programming. For more projects, see my Github or my Codeberg

banjy

https://github.com/MeanBeanie/bannnnjy

An app built for Linux and MacOS to create tablature for banjos

Written in C++
Uses SFML for the visuals
Used the osxcross toolchain to cross-compile for MacOS

tea

https://codeberg.org/MeanBeanie/tea

A compiler for a statically typed programming language that generated x86_64 assembly

Written in C
Used a mix between Recursive Descent and Pratt Parsing
Can integrate with C libraries (such as raylib) to allow better insertion into already existing codebases
Able to make system calls to the Linux kernel to perform operations like reading or writing to files
Supports namespacing and file inclusion, can recursively search through the current directory and subdirectories for included files

oregon state class fetcher

https://codeberg.org/MeanBeanie/oregon_state_class_fetcher

A series of python scripts that collect data on every course offered at Oregon State University by scraping the school's catalog

Written in Python
Scrapes the catalog for information about classes
Generates a tree of the prequisites required by a particular class
Includes a REPL that reads in the user's filter for the collected data and prints the classes that match the filter

fui.h

https://codeberg.org/MeanBeanie/fui.h

a single-header graphics library that renders text in cells like a terminal but also supports direct pixel manipulation, like a TUI crossed with a GUI

Written in C
Ncurses-like printing functions
Allows the choice between multiple graphics frontends (SDL, Raylib, X11)
Supports rendering of custom emoji-like glyphs
