Though part of the project can be done in an "abstract" way and mathematical skills can help, e.g. how to design a proper hierarchy for polynomials over different types of rings, most of it will be how to dispatch methods btw sagemath's category framework and the concrete classes, and how to link to different C/C++ libraries i a proper way.
