• Suspension Team Manager

  • Jul 2016 - Jul 2017

  - Responsible for the implementation of the new cars suspension, as well as the steering and braking systems. - Management of the teams CAD files and also developing and running course to introduce new members of the team to SolidWorks. - Began introducing Matlab and Simulink simulations to be used in optimising various aspects of the suspension, including weight transfer and linkage kinematics.

• Electrical Team Manager

  • Sep 2015 - Jul 2016

  - Responsible for all aspects of the electrical system for the universities first Formula Student car to be built and attend the competition at Silverstone. - Main elements of the electrical system were the overall power distribution wiring, Engine control wiring and programming and the implementation of a data acquisition system utilising an myRIO FPGA programmed using LabView.- Involved in ensuring that these designs were compatible with the rest of the project development by attending weekly management meetings with the other managers and organising weekly meetings of my own team to ensure targets were adhered to.- At the competition we faced a number of setbacks getting the car to operate, one of which required the entire rewiring of the engine control system of the car under high time pressures. For our efforts at the competition we were awarded the Racecar Engineering magazines "Spirit of Formula Student Award" Show less

Edinburgh Thermal Audit Project

• Development Engineer

  • Oct 2015 - Jun 2016

  Part of a project looking at non-invasive ways of improving the thermal efficiency of Edinburgh flats. - Worked on the implementation of an ultra-low cost data acquisition system using Atmel ATtiny microcontrollers and the arduino development environment. - System intended to be used to monitor the temperature at fixed intervals with the final goal being to install multiple sensors in one room to track the temperature variations across the room throughout the day.
