About
Flexible and adaptable mechanical engineer. I can perform well in a team and independently with minimal supervision. I have an eye for detail. I use this skill mostly on documentation and 2D drawings to assess my work for safety, fabrication, and assembly.
I regularly consult with participating lead engineer to explain my understanding of the project scope, to eliminate ambiguity. This system engineering approach enables proactive problem-solving and encourages designing for the right problem.
I firmly believe in inclusivity and diversity. Communication is pivotal within the group. I make decisions that benefit the organization and promote safety within the working environment. I have experience with supplier visits to assess the fabrication of the projects and solve the issues they encounter onset. I take criticism very positively and strive to improve my weaknesses to strength.

How can you ensure a robot's reliability and durability?
1. The following tests should be considered: 1.1. Fatigue tests 1.2. Compound stresses- when the robot is exposed to torsional, torque and axial load simultaneously. This tests the endurance and reliability of it under rough conditions. 1.3. Software's response- slow response from the sensors will undeniably affect the feedback loop and the response mechanism built-in this robots 1.4. Hardware's resistance to shocks, impact and temperature gradients. These severely depends on the correct material selection and other joining processes.
