Engineering and designing the composite platform of hydrofoiling, electric ferries in a fast paced and cutting-edge start-upIndividually developing various composite tools for use in the design process, including composite ABD and DNV & ISO scantling spreadsheetsEngineering base laminates and internal structures with the use of my composite tools, subsequently producing a variety of drawing sets Working in partnership with the on-site build team, to define practical solutions Remaining flexible and adaptable in the ever-changing environment of a start-up.Collaborating with and working within a large team of engineering disciplines with varied levels of experience and skillsets

Worked part-time within the New Zealand engineering team, offering advanced composite solutions for a variety of sectors including the aerospace and marine industries.Collaborated with and worked alongside other engineers to complete draughting, 3D modelling and weight estimates of composite structures on Auto-CAD and Rhinoceros 5.Investigated the reliability and accuracy of internal design tools and developed procedures to improve efficiency and precision. Reported and communicated findings to troubleshoot within the company, including with those in offices off-shore.

Played an Integral part in the build team which manufactured both the initial AC75 and final race-boat that successfully defended the America's cup in 2021.Produced high-quality parts from detailed engineering drawings, using a variety of advanced composite manufacturing methods with a range of high performance composite materials. Worked individually and in teams of varying sizes to complete projects in an efficient and precise manner.A high level of attention to detail was required to produce parts to the highest quality alongside a need for problem solving and initiative due to the innovative and complex nature of the designs.
