Comprehensive and varied lab experience.
Final year group project was to design a non-intrusive apparatus to measure the deflection of a panel of aircraft skin during a simulated lightning strike. I went on to present the findings from this project at the in[SCI]te student science conference.
Employment History
2018-Present
Consultant
Aerogility
I work face to face with international clients to identify and implement new functionality to the aircraft maintenance scheduling algorithm. In particular I developed the ability to merge several maintenance types into one shorter time slot.
​
Extending and maintaining tools that keeps all databases and SQL scripts error free.
I implemented a MySQL adapter and migrated the civil databases from MSSQL to AWS Aurora. This significantly improved data query speed and reliability as all functionality is now on one platform.
​
Training clients on how to use our products.
​
Creating exploratory demonstrations of Aerogility's applications to industries beyond aviation. In particular to wind turbines and the energy sector.
Volunteer Work
2023-Present
3D Printer Technician
South London Maker Space
In a team with 2 other 3D print technicians we fulfil all 3D printing related duties, ensuring all 6 FDM and resin printers are in a usable condition at all times for our 600 members.
​
We conduct training on how to safely use the printers.
​
We perform maintenance on the printers, conduct calibration tests, fix blockages.
Skills
Software Languages
Experience in programming in Java, Matlab, Visual Basic, Arduino and LaTeX through a variety of personal and academic projects and work. I also work heavily with databases and am fluent in MySQL, MSSQL and Oracle flavours of SQL.
​
​
Electronics
Participated in a range of electronics based projects and have developed a firm understanding of circuit theory, interpreting datasheets as well as the design and manufacture of Printed Circuit Boards.
​
​
3D Design
CAD experience in SolidWorks, Fusion360 and FreeCAD. FDM, SLS and SLA forms of 3D printing and 3D scanning using Creality CR-scan and photogrammetry. CNC machining.
​
​
Other Skills
I have used the following skills in past projects to varying degrees: welding, metal lathe, sewing, plaster casting, woodwork, silicone moulding, sketching, screen printing, vacuum forming, laser cutting/engraving, Arduino, producing engineering drawings, fluid simulation, electromagnetic simulation.
