While working as a mechanical engineering co-op for Alliance Laundry Systems, I had opportunity to get hands-on experience while working on several projects through the duration of the co-op. I collaborated with the lead engineers to assemble and run overload tests on several large chassis industrial fixtures for commercial tumblers. I also formulated a database for the parts used in the production of these large chassis tumblers, dryers, and washer extractors. I also analyzed and suggested changes in the shipping procedures for the washer extractor supply chain. Finally, I had a chance to work with a team of engineers in developing next generation of commercial laundry machines which was called ‘The Refresh Project.’ All these projects were part of value enhancement engineering which aimed at adding value to a product by increasing its deliverable efficiency while reducing the overall cost at the same time.

As an engineering intern working for Escuela De Ciencia, I had the chance to design and test prototype for robots before delivering the final product. I also was responsible for programming and installing a STP step motor which helped us increase the efficiency by 60% while calibrating the motion sensors for the robot along with designing a manually controlled sensor box to control the movement of the robot. Furthermore, I also was part of the team that helped in manufacturing of a miniature space capsule which was used by the European Space Agency.
