Alan Selormey

Dynamic and eager Robotics Engineering Student at Aberystwyth University, looking to secure a placement so I can learn the ins and outs of production code and apply my own skills to them. I specialize in using general and system-level languages like C and Java. I'm familiar with Arduino, and Raspberry Pi's and have some knowledge of STM32 boards. I excel in innovating solutions like the usage of Custom data structures for lower latency on my text-editor project, demonstrating technical prowess and a continuous learning mindset.

• Leadership demonstrated through the management of a team of 10 during the large cleanup at the 2023 FOSDEM
• Effective Teamwork developed through the group collaboration of a presentation with 3 other students
• Clear communication and competency is shown through tutoring other computer science students in C/C++
• Problem Solving is developed through solving project creations and leetcode problem-solving
• Adaptability and Open-mindedness shown by swapping my website from c# to Go-lang for performance benefits

Personal Website: irlalan.net

• Personal website and blog showcasing projects i've made and anything else I find interesting. It is made using Go-lang, htmx and templ running on an aws Ubuntu server instance.

Cross-platform c++ build and automation tool: gcreate

• A build tool similar to cmake that is configurable through a config.toml file and can create/manage any c/c++ projects and will later be able to serialise into a Makefile. It is made entirely using Go-lang

Custom text editor

• A Custom modal text editor thats GUI GPU-accelerated using SDL

Cellular automaton(Conway's Game of life, lenia)

• My attempt at making Conway's Game of Life and expanding it into a lenia cellular automata that uses continuous data instead of discrete, which is what Conway's Game of Life uses.

C++ game engine framework: VEngine

• A Custom game framework to make voxels and voxel games. Using OpenGL API and GLM for linear algebra.

Banking Software

• A two-part serverless banking software that connects to a custom API. The project simulates money handling, account, and money management users for smaller businesses that want to stress test their current systems for auto-scaling

Line following Robot

• An arduino robot made specifically to follow dark lines of varying gradience
