Benjamin Trainum Email & Phone Number

I'm a computer science geek with a healthy appreciation of math and mechatronics mixed in. I'm usually tinkering with one thing or another, whether hardware or software; during university, some projects I explored include: - the design and construction of a 2D gantry for lab research, including the development of custom stepper motor controller firmware - construction of an 8-bit computer from base principles built on breadboards - ball & beam balancing deviceI was also a part of Elon's FSAE team, where I helped in the design and construction of a custom electric race vehicle, akin to a Formula 1 car. I worked designing various elements of the vehicle's drivetrain systems: electrical, powertrain, and the HV accumulator. I also gained experience in CNC machining through making clevises and uprights for the car's suspension assembly. Since we were a brand new team, our first car was not completed before I graduated, and I wish the team luck in the 2025 competition!I am currently pursuing work experience, and am excited to hone my skills in software development and testing in my position at AKG as a Software Control Engineer.
