My name is Akus Chhabra, I am an Aerospace Engineering graduate from Toronto Metropolitan University with professional experience in Aircraft Performance Engineering and Full-Stack Development.
Currently, I am working as a Full-Stack Developer at Clouver, where I develop client-requested features using JavaScript, GraphQL, HTML, and SQL. Prior to this, I worked as an Aircraft Performance Engineer at Bombardier Aerospace, contributing to flight management system (FMS) data analysis, updating aircraft flight manuals, and developing scripts to analyze mission performance for the Global aircraft.
My technical expertise in programming includes machine learning, computer vision, and data analysis. I developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) using TensorFlow to classify crack sizes in aerospace materials and implemented a YOLOv8 model for image recognition, streamlining verification processes in PCB manufacturing. I am proficient in programming languages such as Python, MATLAB, and JavaScript, and have experience with development tools such as React, Linux and Batch Script.
I am eager to apply my knowledge through contributions to diverse projects in aerospace, software, and engineering fields.
