Student Assistant in course TTT4145 - Radio Communications (Spring, 2018)

Development of Inverter component to be used in an electric race car developed by Revolve NTNU for the 2017 Formula Student engineering competition. Worked with development tasks for the Inverter. Tasks involved circuit design in Altium Designer, modeling in SolidWorks, soldering of PCB components with approx. dimensions 0.5 - 3.2 mm, as well as sponsorship arrangements for the project. Further involved close cooperation with 2 - 4 other students from similar engineering programmes of study. In simple terms, the function of an inverter is opposite to a rectifier. It takes a direct voltage as input and produces a corresponding alternating voltage as output. It is therefore a DC-to-AC converter. In a race car, it performs the DC-to-AC conversion from the battery to an electrical synchronous AC motor that drives the car forward.

General maintenance work like cleaning, sorting mail, cleaning coffee machines, delivering fruit, etc.

Involved repairing and testing laptop computers for customers. The primary tasks were replacing faulty components, applying cooling paste to processors, as well as general troubleshooting and debugging based on the customers failure report.

Practice period arranged by my Upper secondary school. It lasted for one week in the autumn 2008, and two weeks in January 2009. During these periods, I learned a lot of basic electrician work and worked at large building installations as well as small installations. Notable tasks were electrical wiring, drilling, connecting wall sockets, etc.
