Lead engineer on a UV Germicidal Irradiation project aimed at Tuberculosis prevention, being responsible for specification generation, mechanical and electrical design, liaising with other engineers on the development of electronic subsystems and project planning. Senior intellectual property engineer of the company, responsible for IP searches, generation.

This was the first start-up I joined. Balancell develops products for large battery pack balancing and monitoring. As such, all electronics have to sealed against the ingress of sulfuric acid. This led to me learning to use SolidWorks, designing aluminium molds for low pressure overmolding, testing plastics for sulfuric acid resistance and prototyping a.

One aspect of my position involved prototyping new ideas for the application of the company's capacitive touch sensing IC's. I also realized a type of finite element simulation within Excel (!) of touch screen electrode linearization patterns. A large part of my time was spent on EMC, and I was instrumental in the development and setup of an in-house.

Itron was an eye-opener to the worlds of utility metering and large corporations. Things were done differently, and in a much more structured manner. As a hardware design engineer, I re-designed an 868MHz data radio used for automatic meter reading, designed a single phase smart meter (as part of a multi-disciplinary team), was responsible for the system.

Sygade was an interesting company to work at, being heavily involved in the development of hand-held computing terminals (Tablets was still a bit into the future in 2004) and RFID readers. But it also had a background in sports monitoring equipment and a relationship with the Sports Science Institute in Cape Town. I was initially employed as en electronic.

This was my first position after university. I held a general electronic development engineer position, and worked on diverse projects. Three prominent ones are the coding of an FFT in Assembly for a TI DSP chip, development of minimalist boost converter and development of an FPGA board. The latter was used by the IC design team at Azoteq to simulate their.
