EXPERIENCE

R&D engineer February 2021 – Present [Steven Day ******@***.***]

ECMO, an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation device fitted with a super permeable nano pore membrane.

-Used first principal engineering to design an improved syringe pump for hemolysis research in SolidWorks, engineered with paper calculations/excel, machined the parts, wrote a stepper library and UI in C++ for operation of the syringe pump.

-Designed enclosures in SolidWorks and improved flow dynamics of the physical ECMO devices, achieved a reduced hemolytic potential.

Dragonheart, a Bi Ventricular Assist device “heart pump”.

-Led the research, design and development of a magnetic bearing levitation scheme, for the centrifugal side of this pump.

-Ran analytical and computational simulations in ANSYS which were then experimentally verified.

-Currently manufacturing components and building a control law in LabVIEW/Simulink for the device.

CNC Retrofitter / Machinist June 2017 – August 2017 [Tom LaMontagne www.element-cnc.com]

Retrofitting of customer’s production CNC milling machine with Element’s control.

-Reverse engineering a 50+ year old machine, mapping wires and functions, rerouting wires, replacing servos, testing core functions of the machine, reprogrammed components to interface with new control boards, and wrote electrical schematics/manuals.

Carpenter Summers 2015-2020 [Heather Thompson www.tjwhome.com]
