 Watch Product Design Engineer

• Improved our AI-powered auto-grouting robot’s motor-load efficiency through a redesign of its extrusion system. In charge of mechanical architecture and overall packaging efficiency.

• Designed a split muff coupling solution for optimal motor-gearbox pairing.

• Pioneered FEA simulations of complex mechatronics systems including force loops to ensure robustness of the robot.

1. Cut costs on the instrument panel of a future model by pioneering unprecedented designs with novel manufacturing methods and materials.

2. Took full ownership of parts in the instrument panel system for future Tesla vehicles involving high-volume mass production.

3. Communicated with suppliers and vendors from Asia and Europe, cross-comparing engineering materials and manufacturing processes, designing for weight reduction and efficiency.

4. Negotiated extensively with other departments such as studio and general assembly. Performed regular DFM reviews.

5. Extensively employed GD&T knowledge and datum strategies to perform tolerance analyses and release drawings.

6. Effectively designed for automation in general assembly, homologation and safety requirements.

7. Worked with cross-functional teams on the integration of electromechanical modules to meet strict reliability requirements.

8. Full time offer rescinded with the rest of the team due to company wide restructuring.

1. Expanded membership to 800 students in 2 years, creating one of the fastest growing societies at Cambridge.

2. Acquired at least 4 paying clients per year with over £6000 in sponsorships. Received 100% positive reviews.

3. Contacted lead designers from top design companies and world-renowned design professors as guests for HC’s design events, regularly oversubscribed by 200-500%. Cold-messaged over 300 professionals, securing over 20 industry leaders as judges, mentors and speakers, including lead designers from Apple, Amazon, Tesla, etc.

4. Pioneered the Hercules Cambridge Design Tournament, with over 100 participants and £2000 in sponsorship.

5. Moderated four wings: Business Acquisition, Skill Leads, Operations and Branding to co-operate effectively.

1. Primary organiser for the largest design tournament in the history of Cambridge University.

2. Reached an estimated over 5000 students in our publicity efforts, increased the number of members on the Hercules Cambridge platform from 190+ to over 350 in this period.

3. With over 85 participants, mentored the participants, mostly with no prior design experience, until they are confident to design their own products from scratch with SolidWorks.

4. Contacted 11 sponsors and prominent speakers, mostly lead designers from top companies like Facebook and Google, to provide participants with the best design experience we can offer.
