As a mechanical engineer at Otter Products, I develop and design best in class device cases, leveraging SOLIDWORKS for CAD modelling and utilizing rapid prototyping through advanced 3D printing technologies. This process involves iterative design incorporating inter-disciplinary feedback from multiple design reviews before manufacturing begins. Other responsibilities include engineering documentation, engineering drawings, test engineering, creating manufacturing jigs, and file management in Agile frameworks and SOLIDWORKS PDM.

Fort Collins, Colorado, United States

Throughout my time at Otter Products, I executed test plans, procedures, and methodologies to ensure the PRD was met; such as material property testing, chemical compatibility, camera image quality testing, drop testing, impact testing, product quality checks, UL tests, accelerated aging, IPXX dust/water ingress, altitude tests, adhesive strengths, and ADMET testing. After performing tests, I documented and analyzed the outcomes of all tests. Additionally, I designed test fixtures for impact testing and drop testing in SolidWorks. I then prototyped designs with 3D printing and machining.

Cherry Creek, Colorado, United States

Developed and guided an exceptional customer experience within the Cherry Creek Cotopaxi location. Created a positive shopping and customer service environment. Assisted with inventory management and staff training. In-depth knowledge of the outdoor retail industry.

Denver, Colorado, United States

Designed key mechanical systems for a new automated tape library. Modeled multiple designs in Creo before rapidly prototyping them via 3D printing and machining. I participated in and received meaningful feedback from the mechanical hardware team's design reviews. For the manufacturing team, I created multiple component verification/qualification tests. I completed multiple bills of materials for projects at different stages of completion. I coordinated and consulted with manufacturers and application engineers about integrating components available on the market into my prototype designs. Throughout the summer, I had the pleasure of working alongside senior engineers from Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Software Engineering backgrounds.
