• Space and RF Engineering
• Circuit design, PCB layout, and test of multiple digital interface boards for a satellite hosted payload module. Featured an array of standard differential signaling and capable of power supply control.
• Conceptualized and executed design verification tests of a digital I/Q generator and RF modulator for a high-rate radio. Tested and troubleshot RF products for a variety of frequency bands from L to Ka.
• Created and maintained documents for products including derating analysis, comprehensive worst case analysis reports, top level interface drawings, and slice interconnect drawings.
• Developed the environmental test procedures for a suite of RF space products at qualification and acceptance levels of verification.
• Collaborated with test engineers on the design of Special Test Equipment (STE) and a LabView graphical user interface used for product operation. Verified and troubleshot the STE before going to use in production.

• Circuit design, PCB layout, and test of a CubeSat radio modem board with analog IF and digital signal processing on an FPGA. Included various analog and digital I/O for applications such as RF synthesizer control, gain.
• Formed the CubeSat radio system through design and layout of a backplane, applying and contributing to the development of mission operations. Generated hardware tests at the system level (spacecraft bus and payload).
• Circuit design, PCB layout, test, and delivery of a high-rate RF modem. Integrated modem unit with other subsystems in the payload.
• Handled and tested flight hardware in a clean room environment.
• Performed vibration and thermal vacuum acceptance testing of modem unit.
• Provided presentations of technical information and other deliverable items to customers.

I have had a multifaceted experience as an Intern at Broad Reach. I have gained experience in design and test engineering with the development of ground support equipment for avionics projects and delivered GSE for the OSIRIS-REx Thermal Emission Spectrometer. Labview and MATLAB have become strong skills of mine as I augmented telemetry VI's to.
