The 'bother the professor' part is key. With new teammates, I want them to reach out if they're on a project I'm leading. If things look like they're going well - then it's great to get positive feedback. If not, better to change direction early (lost work due to changing requirements).

Do you have a weekly 1:1 with your manager?

No, I don't, is this something you think it'd make sense for me to request?

Yes, or just schedule the one-on-one yourself. You have Outlook, same as them.
