San Jose, Ca

- Design, build, and test optical and electromechanical components from scratch which enable proprietary LiDAR technologies.- Work closely with optical, electrical, and firmware engineers to ensure compatibility of hardware, electronics and firmware in LiDAR systems.- Develop tools and processes to aid transition from building a few prototypes to manufacturing alpha and beta samples for customers as well as NPI Engineers.- Create mechanical drawings to communicate functional importance of location, size, and form of design features to aid in machining and manufacturing of new parts and components.

San Jose, California

- Engaged with customers in the Display, Solar, and LED industries to understand their process steps, conditions, chemistries and how they are changing, to identify current and future gaps in Edwards’ products and capabilities.- Worked closely with customers on new processes to determine the best pumping and abatement solution to ensure optimum performance and safety, while complying with local environmental regulations.- Worked closely with customer facilities and EH&S personnel during and after design review stage to ensure proper and safe implementation of Edward’s products.- Identified and mitigated challenges of pumping and abating specific processes gases to ensure that these gases do not undergo specific phase changes and/or reactions, which can cause blockages and safety implications and lead to unplanned down time.- Developed DOEs for understanding abatement performance when customers push the limits beyond well understood process conditions. I then documented results for future applications support in white papers, best known methods, or applications information bulletins.

Sunnyvale, Ca

- Interfaced with customers to determine their primary objectives and concerns, prioritizing what they seek from a laser solution and expanding upon functionality and performance as their budget allows.- Utilized my knowledge of laser-materials interactions and experience to develop laser processes for applications including micro-machining, soldering, drilling, marking, engraving, and more.- Designed and constructed R&D laser systems with increased flexibility for applications development.- Conceived and built up China applications lab and trained local applications engineers in order to provide quick laser solutions and support to regional customers and subcontractors. - Assisted in deployment of systems into customer factories to qualify for mass production.Maintained and increased functionality of R&D lab and equipment.

Columbia University In The City Of New York

- Utilized laser recrystallization in attempt to manipulate the microstructures and properties of magnetic thin films.- Characterized thin film samples with AFM, SEM, and EBSD.

Columbia University In The City Of New York

- Utilized scanning tunneling microscope to analyze topography and electronic density of states in High Tc Superconductors.- Designed and constructed network to capture and re-liquefy helium - Designed key components (sample holder/stage, transport measurement apparatus, sample preparation system) for future STM/Transport measurement cryostat.

University Of California, Santa Cruz

- Developed Helium recovery, storage, and re-liquefaction network.- Prepared samples, plotted data, and ran experiments including magnetic susceptibility, resistivity, thermal conduction, and thermopower. - Constructed and repaired equipment for both research and general laboratory purposes.- Maintained low temperature physics lab by filling cryostats with liquid helium, ordering necessary equipment, organizing and cleaning, etc.
