Systems Integration Engineer

Oakland, California, United States

• Worked in the mechanical design and manufacturing team to rapidly prototype an IR smart heater.
• Oversaw the additive manufacturing process to streamline a fast-paced production schedule to supply inventory for constant demos and pilot programs while creating and implementing a preventive and reactive maintenance.
• Wrote and executed thermal fatigue testing plans to test different manufacturing methods, finding the low cycle limit for potential heating element materials, and vendor acceptance testing on OTS thermocouples for.
• Designed and manufactured a portable, rapid assembly product demonstration platform with independent power and a structurally stiff collapsing stand.
• Designed and manufactured assembly jigs to create subcomponents and documented accompanying assembly instructions, reducing assembly time by 5-10 minutes per subassembly.

San Diego, California, United States

Assisted in instructing a freshman level Chemistry Laboratory Course.

Greater San Diego Area

Tutored students in Calculus, General Chemistry, and Engineering Physics.

Berkeley, California, United States

• Used SolidWorks to design a combat robot and Ansys Explicit Dynamics to perform FEM impact analysis, reducing Von Mises stress distribution by 10% and weight to stay under 3lb constriction.
• Researched winning robots to determine design requirements for: raw material selection for material properties and logistics; structural designs for an impact resistant chassis; powertrain assemblies for.
• Prototyped with an FDM printer to test for ease of assembly, OTS components, and wire harness requirements.
• Used a waterjet, laser cutter, lathe, drill press, and Dremel to manufacture polymer and steel parts. Soldered motors, ESCs, and battery connections and then performed verification testing on impact force.
• Developed a comprehensive bill of materials to track spare part sources and ensure adherence to budget constraints.

• Competed with a small team in a NASA competition to design a mock NASA Lunar mission.
• In charge of creating the research plan by determining equipment, power, weight, and cost requirements.
• Completed a research project on Advancing In-Situation Resource Utilization, focusing on prospecting Lunar regolith and recovering metals using ionic liquid reprotonization process.
