Detailed design of mechanical components for marine actuators; early-stage product development work (freedom-to-operate analysis, proof-of-concept analysis, etc.)

Provided mechanical design advice and mentorship to junior members; designed drivetrain components for the 2023 EV; transitioned leadership responsibilities to the succeeding Project Managers

Managed project timelines for the design, manufacture, and testing of both combustion and EV FSAE race cars; managed budgets, sponsorship, and grant funding; directly supervised 10+ System Leads and oversaw around 40 general members; provided design and manufacturability advice in component and system design reviews; improved recruitment and member retention

Used MATLAB simulation scripts to determine vehicle parameters that optimize overall performance; developed spreadsheet calculations for forces in suspension members; designed suspension sensor mounts; manufactured vehicle components on CNC and manual mills and lathes; gathered vehicle data and driver comments during test days and adjusted suspension tune accordingly.
