Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeremy Shaw is a Learning Engineer with 21 years of experience who blends classroom pedagogy and systems-level software expertise to design practical learning experiences. A first-generation college student now pursuing an EdD in Educational/Instructional Technology, he has taught computer science and math at high school and university levels while building embedded and runtime software for open-source projects. His GitHub work includes adapting the Idris runtime for non-pthread environments and adding Arduino support, and he contributed Teensy 3.x support to a popular Arduino Makefile—demonstrating deep comfort with portability, low-level C, and IoT toolchains. Based in Salinas, California, Jeremy pairs hands-on embedded systems development with instructional design, helping learners and code run reliably in constrained environments.

idris-lang/Idris-dev
Mar 2014 - Sep 2014
A Dependently Typed Functional Programming Language
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer & Systems Programmer
Back-end Developer & Systems ProgrammerContributions:16 commits in 6 months
Contributions summary:Jeremy primarily focused on modifying the runtime system (RTS) of the Idris language. Their work involved adapting the RTS for environments without pthreads, implementing pointer alignment, and making changes to data structures, notably with the introduction of `uint32_t` types for specific fields. Furthermore, the user added support for Arduino, including an `idris_main.c` file tailored for the platform and integrating RTS source files into the build process for cross-compilation. These modifications suggest a focus on portability and system-level programming within the Idris ecosystem.

sudar/Arduino-Makefile
Oct 2014 - Oct 2014
Makefile for Arduino sketches. It defines the workflows for compiling code, flashing it to Arduino and even communicating through Serial.
Role in this project:Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:10 commits, 1 comment in 9 days
Contributions summary:Jeremy primarily contributed to the `Teensy.mk` file, which is a Makefile used for building Arduino sketches for Teensy boards. Their work focused on adding support for Teensy 3.x boards, improving the build process, and incorporating the necessary tools for uploading and resetting the boards. They added examples of the build and also modified core build settings for optimal functionality.
