Work History

Freelance Mechatronics Developer

  • Created a remote pendant prototype for Synergy Technology, LLC. Utilized a Raspberry Pi computer and Raspberry PICO microcontroller, wrote Python and Micropython code, set up silent boot and python program autostart in the Linux OS, and set up a circuit with buttons and switches to collect input that modified the pendant's state.
  • Specified, assembled, and programmed a remote controlled motorized wheel system for a 200lb drone for Mule Works LLC. Created electronic circuit schematics, sources components for the system and confirmed specifications by contacting manufacturers, created a bill of materials for parts, and assembled and tested the system.
  • Worked on the C++ Firmware for California Lightworks' LED light controller. Debugged the existing codebase and added new features and menus to the light controller. Programming and uploading was completed using the Platformio extension on VScode.
  • Configured a ROS2 bridge between a computer and Arduino for differential motor control for an independent client. The main task involved modifying the settings of the Bridge (an Arduino program) to enable the bridge to control a Roboclaw motor controller. I referenced the bridge's GitHub repository, and the motor controller's datasheets in order to complete the task.
