How I work

A simple engineering loop.

I start with the physical constraint, quantify it, choose the right intervention, prove it on real hardware, and make the gain repeatable.

01

Observe

Find the actual manufacturing constraint.

02

Measure

Quantify time, cost, quality or risk.

03

Engineer

Design the right mechanical or process intervention.

04

Automate

Use sensing, software or automation where it removes effort.

05

Validate

Prove the change with real hardware and evidence.

06

Standardize

Turn the improvement into a repeatable process.

Engineering in practice

One problem. One clear result.

The IMU fixture is the best example of how the engineering approach above translates into a manufacturing result.

IMU-BASED FIXTURE

The problem was mechanical. The measurement was digital.

The top-plate shaft could jam in the chamber hole, creating rework and line-down risk. I ideated, designed and developed a fixture using IMU sensing to determine absolute top-plate/chamber position and identify planar misalignment.

Assembly technicians then used the fixture repeatedly on the manufacturing line, followed by time and labour-hour validation against the original process.

What I bring

Depth in manufacturing. Range across disciplines.

The differentiator is not one tool. It is knowing when a mechanical, electrical, software or validation approach is the right answer.

01

Manufacturing Productivity

Cycle-time reduction, process improvement, fixture development and cost reduction.

02

Automation & Software

Python, hardware test automation, computer vision and AI-assisted workflows.

03

Complex Hardware

Mechanical + electronics + software across physical systems and manufacturing processes.

04

Regulated & High-Reliability

Medical devices, semiconductor equipment, V&V, supplier engineering and risk retirement.

Selected work

Evidence, not a keyword wall.

Three examples here. The full project section contains the deeper technical stories.

01Manufacturing · Sensors · Precision Fixture

IMU-Based Manufacturing Fixture

Repeated rework occurred because the top-plate shaft could jam in the chamber hole, creating assembly delays and line-down risk.

90% cycle-time reduction, more than $1M annual savings, and elimination of line-down events caused by the jam condition.
