Lead Product Development Engineer

• • Led development of alcohol and THC detection platforms from concept through regulatory approval, manufacturing readiness, and commercial deployment.
• • Collaborated with executive leadership, engineering, manufacturing, and regulatory teams to prioritize product features, development milestones, and market launch objectives.
• • Translated customer, regulatory, and operational requirements into system specifications and product development roadmaps.
• • Managed technical trade-offs between performance, manufacturability, reliability, cost, and project timelines.
• • Supported product commercialization activities including certification planning, manufacturing transfer, supplier engagement, and field deployment.
• • Supported certification activities and regulatory validation for commercial breath-testing products deployed in safety-critical environments.

Mechatronics Engineer

• • Designed and integrated actuators, sensors, motor drives, embedded controllers, and control systems for a large-scale robotic concrete printing platform.
• • Developed and executed hardware validation testing to characterize motion accuracy, repeatability, actuator performance, and structural behavior.
• • Integrated encoder systems, limit switches, motor controllers, and safety interlocks to support reliable autonomous operation.
• • Performed system-level debugging across mechanical, electrical, and software domains to identify and resolve integration issues.
• • Designed and fabricated custom brackets, fixtures, cable management systems, and mechanical assemblies using rapid prototyping techniques.
• • Built and validated a full-scale robotic construction platform capable of printing structures with ±5 mm positional accuracy.
• • Contributed directly to development of the company's first operational prototype which helped secure $2M in investor funding.

Research Assistant

• • Developed and validated control algorithms using MATLAB and Simulink for dynamic mechanical systems.
• • Designed experimental setups, collected data, and analyzed system performance to validate modeling assumptions.
• • Published peer-reviewed research focused on control systems and system stability in 4 highly distinct journals.

Research and Development Intern

• • Organized and handled project requirements, resource identification, and task execution.
• • Corroborated the design, efficiency and performance of the unit with the team at Bosch Rexroth
• • Successfully developed a modular unit with higher energy savings that can be used in actuation of small cylinders, fixture clamps, and other machine tool applications
• • An overall energy saving of up to 82 percent was achieved covering over conventional units
