Design of high quality hardware and documentation that exceeds customer expectations while conforming to deadlines and applicable standards. Projects are primarily in the medical field, but can include the commercial, industrial and defense fields.Working at BCA provides an opportunity to wear a variety of hats including: project conceptualization, architecture/design, documentation, and test/debug. Design involves a variety of tasks including schematic capture/layout adhering to best practices, digital/analog design, FPGA, motor control, and antenna design. Creating full documentation for a project includes requirements, design documentation, risk management, and failure mode and effect analysis. Testing and debug of products include addressing any bugs, ensuring compliance with requirements, and regulatory testing. A primary focus on medical products necessitated a comfort with IEC-60601 and its associated standards. Show less

Worked within an interdisciplinary team to develop an automation system to test multiple types of automotive relay drivers with a variety of inductive loads. Focused on creating circuitry for automatic change of outputs, protection elements, thermal sensing, fail detection, Arduino support, and incorporation onto a single PCB.Capstone served as a technical culmination of my education. Taking a design from concept to realization on board. The project required circuit design, careful… Show more Worked within an interdisciplinary team to develop an automation system to test multiple types of automotive relay drivers with a variety of inductive loads.

Project required good communication between team members and regular status reports to technical directors. The team was able to successfully realize the goal of the project. Show less

East Greenwich, Rhode Island

Worked within a team that develops FETs with built in circuit protection for an automotive application. Helped to characterize components and test functionality. Developed PCBs and software for automated bench testing systems.My time with onsemi provided a great opportunity to utilize software skills, developing a VB.NET application along with simple FW to control and capture data pertaining to FET specifications. Automotive application led to a focus of the FET's ability to switch… Show more Worked within a team that develops FETs with built in circuit protection for an automotive application.

Newport, Rhode Island

Researched, designed, and tested components for handling systems on towed arrays. Collaborated with engineers from different disciplines for projects. First experience with applying engineering skills in real-world environment. My year at NUWC gave insight into actual engineering and provided context that was missing in the classroom. The project involved re-specification of obsolete components for a design that was largely undocumented. Beyond basic circuit analysis, it required… Show more Researched, designed, and tested components for handling systems on towed arrays.
