• Solely responsible for the 2026 race car overall system design and 2025 race car redesign, leading a cross functional team of 40 engineers and 5 sub-teams.

• Managed KENESTO cloud software library of 2000+ CAD parts and assemblies, newly implemented Microsoft teams project management system and newly implemented a team contract to ensure team productivity.

• Revolutionized the UCI Baja project to emphasize iterative test driven system design, vehicle tuning, and competition performance, founding a dedicated testing sub-team and more than quadrupling monthly testing hours with two cars and new data collecting circuits to validate design and redesign.

• Used Solidworks to design, package, and verify a 60% Ackerman steering system reducing bump steer by 50%, turning radius by 21%, improving maneuverability performance from a DNF in the previous year to 17th out of 61 teams and overall performance from 56th out of 86 to 36th out of 61.

• Profiling, angle grinding, tapping, plasma cutting, manual milling and lathing and sheet bending to fabricate 24 control arms, 6 tie rods and toe links, 4 custom designed clevis joints, 32 custom delrin bushings, and steering mounting parts. Used a jig to prepare manufacturing.

• Designed front upright machined with 5 axis CNC. Utilized CAD, FEA, DFM, and engineering drawings and worked with machining professionals. Weight reduction of 66% and packaged for 2” smaller diameter rim, eliminate welding point of failure from previous design: survived competition and further testing.

• Tram, modify, operate, and design parts with Gcode to be manufactured on a 3 axis CNC milling machine, and PLA and SLA 3D printers for rapid prototyping, cutting costs by 75%+ and shortening lead times by 2-3 weeks.

• Conducted comprehensive failure analysis incorporating destructive testing, strain gauging, and static/fatigue FEA to verify a major component redesign, achieving a 20% increase in pressure capacity and 40% longer fatigue life.

• Product development of new multimaterial mix, metering, and microdispense system, launching Fluidic into new markets. Capable of ±0.005mL shot and 2000 psi pumping with a full CAD design and physical prototype.

• Identified operational deficiencies and overhauled technical manuals for operation to improve ease of use and eliminate fastener maintenance. Utilized torque specification testing and pressure testing, via customer feedback.
