Electronic systems design and development

I am a Research Engineer working in the Advanced Mechatronics team. My two decades of electronics engineering experience includes both hardware and software design and development for electronic systems.

A particular achievement I’m proud of was being part of the team that delivered a viable test system for Pyper Vision, meeting a challenging deadline. It enables aircraft to take off and land in foggy conditions. This experience highlighted my ability to thrive in high-pressure environments while ensuring quality and meeting client expectations.

My expertise includes software design using languages such as C/C++ and Python. I am proficient in using LabVIEW for developing software solutions. In hardware design, I have extensive experience with tools like Altium and Fusion 360 for PCB design. I am also expert in embedded systems and PCB assembly, allowing me to tackle complex engineering challenges holistically.

I thrive on the opportunity to apply my skills and expertise to contribute to the success of Callaghan Innovation projects within the field of Advanced Mechatronics.
