Bachelor's of Mechatronics Engineering B.Eng (Co-op) | cGPA 3.8/4.0

Studying in the undergraduate Engineering co-op program to develop a further understanding on high level relevant courses in the modern tech industry.

What is mechatronics engineering? I like to think that it breaks the boundaries between mechanical, electrical, and software engineering.

Graphics Memory Hub Verification Engineering Intern

Managed various aspects of the pre-silicon regression testing process. Worked with 7+ teams to set up and run regressions while triaging test results to identify failed signatures.

• Managed 70+ regressions for 7+ IP teams for memory hub team through triaging test results and optimizing cases
• Improved efficiency of regression verification process through data displays, code coverage reports, and run logs
• Programmed scripts related to test logs, visual displays, and general regression flows using Ruby, Perl, and C++
• Investigated test outputs by means of timing diagram verification, Verilog code analysis, and scripting triage programs

Information and Technology Services Student

Worked with the Corporate Technology Systems department to accomplish a broad range of technical tasks.

• Aligned database of 500+ servers through scripts and high precision checks, noted trends and found optimizations
• Managed 450 Microsoft and Linux servers through installations, patches, health checks, and investigations
• Automated tasks through Bash and PowerShell scripting with a focus on frequent updates, task schedulers, and audit reports
• Researched enterprise software through vendor outreach leading to company wide advanced endpoint protection purchase

Technical Systems Analyst

Worked under the NSO team to assist in automating daily processes while managing global servers and devices.

• Investigated and worked alongside the CIBC Infrastructure Operations team to tackle a variety of technical problems
• Aided team in transition to Microsoft Azure resources with a focus on presenting vendor change releases and firewall integration
• Worked to utilise Ansible and Git to deploy network related applications, saving company resources
• Implement autonomous processes to reduce the manual efforts and redundant tasks associated with technology infrastructure
• Lead daily stand-up meetings to document and organize key agenda items. Reduced agenda discussion times by 50%
• Devised an incident ticket tracker to record overnight pages and investigate key findings for reducing queue volume 3-fold

Data Acquisition

The McMaster Baja Racing team is a team of students who work to compete in the SAE Baja Series. The team manufactures, designs, and races off road vehicles with a focus on mechanical concepts.

• Manufactured, and assembled off road racing vehicle with a focus on data acquisition, incorporating electronics into design
• Acquired steering column torque data through implementation of strain gauges used to optimize user driving capabilities
• Programmed a dynamometer used to measure primary/secondary CVT RPM with the aim of fine tuning engine parameters
• Machined simple parts from engineering drawing and datasheets using milling machine, lathe, and band saw

Ground Controls Software Developer

The McMaster Rocketry Team designs, builds and launches rockets and innovative payloads competing in the Launch Canada Competition.

• Worked with the ground controls to develop a functional team website along with back-end features such as member login
• Utilized HTML, CSS, React, Flask and chart.js to visualize and present flight sensor data
• Leveraged LoRa and Arduino devices to develop a versatile transceiver and receiver system to transfer data on a wide scale
• Analyzed flight data and trajectories using calculations and algorithms to convert existing data into additional information

First Year Representative + VP of Finance

A student group dedicated to the study and appreciation of our universe.

• Generated excitement and interest within the first year community as the club's first year representative
• Substantial experience in recordkeeping and accounting tasks as vice president of finance
