Assist students in lower-level Electrical Engineering labs with troubleshooting hardware, simulating circuits, and using lab equipment.

Newark, California, United States

• Gained practical EV battery testing experience at the battery cell, module, and vehicle pack level by participating and contributing to common industry tests and Lucid-Specific Safety tests. Designed and validated.
• Designed & validated firmware (Arduino) to add additional heating modes for Battery Thermal Runaway Machine. The machine is designed to heat instrumented battery cells (initiators) within a cluster until reaching.
• Program tested continuity between several wiring harnesses and would log key data automatically to Excel and built custom wiring harnesses to connect the device under test to Arduinos to collect data from vibration.

Sunnyvale, California, United States

• Gained a broad understanding of the SDV (Software Defined Vehicle), the automotive industry, and the transition from using traditional CAN to a CAN & Ethernet combo-based network in vehicles. Built and supported.
• Testbeds consisted of UUT (unit under test), relay breakout boards capable of turning on/off various CAN signals, media converters, and CAN signal-generation hardwareCreated a setup/troubleshooting guide and designed a.
• Discussed how to run firmware commands used to turn CAN signals on/off and commands used to diagnose issuesCompiled/flashed AVR microcontrollers (ATmega 328P) using C to enhance firmware useability by providing.
• Wrote a function to calculate how long the firmware has been active without an error/reset from internal-oscillator ticks
• Wrote a function that gradually turned on relays to prevent high inrush current spikesDeveloped extensive soldering/rework experience, comfortable working on high-density PCBs and small form factor parts
• Replaced faulty surface-mount parts eg. ICs, relays, resistors, fuses, using soldering iron and heat gun
