  • Timestamping & Packaging: Ensure precise temporal alignment of video, motion data, and manual timestamp events (e.g., spacebar inputs). Package these elements into standardized local file directories.

Network Resilience: Implement an offline-capable architecture that downloads and caches JSON protocol definitions via REST API, allowing the station to operate during network interruptions and queue uploads

  • Experience organizing code into reusable modules, libraries, or small packages
  • Familiarity with Git and version control in a team setting
  • Basic understanding of working with data (files, formats, simple validation)
  • Willingness and ability to learn new tools and frameworks quickly
  • Ability to collaborate, communicate progress, and ask for help when needed
