Experience
Hardware Engineer
Fourier Earth — Mountain View, CAJan — May 2026expand_more
Hardware Engineer
- —Spearheaded an autonomous reverse-osmosis system for a hydrogen-producing PEM electrolysis device — from Python control logic to a validated subsystem.
- —Designed a custom hydrogen-detection sensor end-to-end in Altium, replacing costly off-the-shelf units with an in-house build.
Development Engineering Student
Tundra Oil & Gas — Calgary, ABMay — Aug 2025expand_more
Development Engineering Student
- —Built Spotfire dashboards that turned raw production and economic data into confident capital-expenditure decisions on enhanced-recovery oil fields.
- —Surfaced high-value waterflood-conversion candidates and presented them directly to senior engineering.
Machine Designer
Musashi Auto Parts — Arthur, ONSep — Dec 2024expand_more
Machine Designer
- —Redesigned a tie-rod assembly line in SolidWorks — universal fixtures and FEA-tuned mechanisms that cut changeover 5× and improved cycle time 15%.
- —Engineered custom FANUC robotic end-effectors end-to-end, saving $500 per unit over commercial tooling.
CAD Developer Lead
EXO Insights — Waterloo, ONJan — Apr 2024expand_more
CAD Developer Lead
- —Transformed industrial point-cloud scans into photoreal virtual twins in Blender — and set the CAD standards the team built on.
