Squamish, British Columbia, Canada

• As a part of the rapidly growing imaging industry, I consult customers on their imaging needs and provide technical support for FRAMOS products all the way from prototyping to mass production.
• Consulting key customers in Eastern North America, collecting their technical requirements, and proposing suitable off-the-shelf or custom imaging solutions
• Defining the Requirements Specification Document for custom optical module projects
• Providing technical support for Sony image sensors, FRAMOS sensor modules, and FRAMOS D400e cameras
• Using knowledge of optical parameters to select M12 and C-mount lenses, mounts, filters, and ICRs for customers
• Familiar with ToF, stereo vision, SWIR, UV, multispectral, and polarization imaging techniques

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

• Researched NDT techniques which will benefit the aerospace field by lowering maintenance costs and ensuring a high level of safety.
• Performed and analyzed scans using new NDT methods such as capacitive imaging
• Wrote a literature review of NDT methods used for lightning-damaged composite materials, which included ultrasonic testing, x-ray radiography, infrared thermography, and capacitive imaging
• Used industry standards (IEC, RTCA-DO-160) to plan environmental tests on embeddable, flexible eddy-current sensors for monitoring aircraft fastener hole condition
• Conducted high and low temperature, temperature variation, humidity, vibration, waterproofness, and surface pressure tests, and documented process and findings in a 180-page report
• Determined suitable durability through tracking electrical and physical sensor characteristics between tests, with all measurements showing less than a 3% change

Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

• Evaluated the performance of new CMOS and CCD image sensor models, focusing on the effects of environmental conditions such as radiation exposure.
• Used MATLAB and Excel to find relationships between the frequency and type of image errors and their locations on sensor die
• Wrote technical reports on the effect of heavy ion, gamma, and proton radiation on the sensors by compiling radiation data into tables and graphs, investigating causes of unexpected issues, and drawing conclusions.
• Created custom optical lab setups to measure MTF, antiblooming, spectral responsivity, and quantum efficiency
• Used LabVIEW to measure dark current, RMS noise, fixed pattern noise, charge transfer efficiency, photo response non-uniformity, and responsivity for all sensors and reported noncompliance

Toronto, Canada Area

• Contributed to the development of a wearable device for swimmers which tracks performance metrics.
• Obtained high-quality data by positioning equipment on swimmers and filming their movements
• Created annotation files for machine learning that describe every event in the videos
• Compared annotations with matching videos and used a Python program and critical thinking skills to discover errors in video compression and timing
• Used software such as SourceTree, CoolTerm, Avidemux and the TritonWear Android app
