Thesis Topic: Sensor fusion, angle sensorsGoal – Enhance signal quality of Hall sensors in battery powered tools by employing state-of-the-art signal processing techniques.• Researched and identified the cause of signal noise and performance issues as harmonics and mechanical vibrations using Fast Fourier Transform analysis.• Tested state of the art software filter structures to eliminate harmonic noise up to ~ 97%.

Continued working on the project: Simulating embedded hardware to enable software testing on target hardware rather than actual hardware.

Worked on the project: Simulating embedded hardware to set up a SIL testing environment to enhance software testing for the THOR team.• Gained experience working with FreeRTOS, Embedded C, Linux file system, Makefile and SCons build system.• Researched and established a feature list and roadmap for the project development. Highlighted the potential of the project to serve as a value addition for customers on top of saving software testing time for developers.

Core ResponsibilitiesManaged the product development of the company’s main product – GRAB Mariner; a remotely operated marine drone aimed at cleaning and managing commercial waterways.• Planned and developed Product Requirements Document, Risk Management Strategies, User Journey Mapping, Customer Experience Strategy and Product Strategy.• Supported in the initial phase of planning development of UX/UI for GRAB Mariner resulting in a prototype User Control Interface.• Applied Design Thinking methodology to realize alternate strategies and solutions for initially established Product Requirements. • Led and mentored small teams of interns in a series of minor mechanical and technical research projects related to feature and design strategy feasibility.• Performed component testing of sub-assemblies and sub-systems using CAD Modelling and 3D Printing Technology [Rapid Prototyping].Additional Responsibilities• Leveraged supply chain management expertise for comprehensive procurement of products and services across all company projects. Oversaw BOM tracking, management, and established an effective inventory system for material handling.• Researched and tested implementation of open-source ERP software for operations planning, manufacturing, and inventory control.• Played a pivotal role in Business Strategy Development through comprehensive market research, crafting compelling value propositions, and identifying potential client portfolios which led to establishing a Go-To-Market Strategy.

• Helped build a pitch deck by doing market research and value propositions centered around sustainable development goals (SDG) that helped us win a prestigious business mentorship program organized by HSBC.• Assisted in developing business and marketing strategy by developing surveys and questionnaires, finding potential leads, and analyzing market trends and interests etc.• Occasionally pitched ideas for product features from a market need perspective.• Assisted in polishing and revising the business model & business plan.

• Successfully converted several small to medium scale civil project insurance quotations into actual policies as part of the Engineering Insurance Department.• Efficiently managed issuance of policy documents, endorsements, and renewals across Engineering and Liability Insurance departments to ensure timely end-of-fiscal year closing.

• Successfully coordinated resources and ensured manufacturing and delivery of 60+ BMS panels for the project – Riyadh Metro Phase I.•Executed hardware testing and integrated panels across different stations into a demonstrative setup for client inspection and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) for the project – Riyadh Metro Phase I.• Executed materials management for the project to adequately establish and plan total material requirements, which included inventory management, installation, component quality control, procurement, and budgeting.• Employed SAP to administer the inventory across projects, conducted stock availability inspections, released available stock in line with project requirements, and requested procurement for unavailable stock.• Utilized Allen Bradley 1794 FLEX I/O Modules and 1756 ControlLogix Controllers to perform IO Testing, and employed RSLogix 5000 for programming purposes and to establish the DLR Setup station.• Applied a comprehensive understanding of the business processes involved in the manufacture of BMS Panels ranging from the budget allocation, invoicing, PO generation, and packaging.

• Designed a prototype test rig to visualize sizing of an Ergonomic Car Interior, a project endorsed by the Engineering Manager.• Employed SolidWorks to design various Project related CAD models in order to generate drawings for manufacturing components and products.• Applied comprehensive knowledge of commercially available grades of metals and engineering services to administer procurement requests from the Costing Department for various materials requirements for RFQ’s.• Performed cost estimation for small RFQ’s received from Costing; utilizing knowledge on material processing times for various operations such as welding, CNC milling, and drilling.• Leveraged procurement responsibilities secure an armored steel plate manufacturing order, bringing additional revenue for the company.
