Work Experience
Senior Mechanical Engineer
Nyza Engineering Design
- Designed a new type of linear actuator, like a roller screw, with some modifications.
- Researched and developed new types of technologies and gear drive systems.
- Made 3D models and animations to visualize the concepts made by the inventor and founder.
Mechanical Design Engineer
Geckon Robotics Pty Ltd
- Focused on the facade cleaning robot project on Fusion 360. Worked on the R&D of the existing facade-cleaning robot. Worked on replacing the pneumatic cylinder and suction cup with the previous gripping system.
- Worked on the solar cleaning mobile robot on Fusion 360. Mechanisms and linkages were developed and implemented in the overall assembly, refined through DFM techniques considering the manufacturability.
- Contributed to the tolerance stack-up analysis and precise engineering drawings for laser cutting, sheet metal folding, and machining.
Senior Mechanical Design Engineer
Off Grid Van Adventures
- Streamlined the design process by converting hand-made RV interiors into 3D models using SolidWorks and making CNC files for machining, resulting in an estimated reduction in lead time and labor cost by 30% or more.
- Designed and developed 3D models for box trucks and associated weldment structures, collaborating with manufacturers to optimize product aesthetics, strength, cost, and lead time for production.
- Delivered two innovative water tank designs, including mounting structures for enhanced functionality.
Mechanical Design Engineer
BJIT
- Modified 3D parts such as a conical hopper, bowl liner, and arm guard using Siemens NX integrated with Teamcenter while adhering to European standards and producing accompanying 2D drawings.
- Contributed to the "Product Data Management" project, harmonizing item master data and identifying over 500 duplicate items, resulting in cost savings of over one million euros for the company.
- Conducted research and developed efficient macros and workflows for identifying duplicates in the PDM system.
Mechanical Design Engineer
Freelance Clients
- Designed and developed a fixed articulated arm for a new product development project. Made rapid prototypes of the product for testing and iterating possibilities.
- Conceptualized, designed, and performed finite element analysis for a semi-autonomous forklift mechanism to ensure functionality and performance.
- Delivered a highly detailed CAD model of a robot gripper and produced 3D printing files for its components, enabling rapid prototyping and testing.
Research Assistant
Swinburne University of Technology
- Conducted research on an innovative robotic arm project under the supervision of Dr. Riady Siswoyo Jo and Dr. Hudyjaya.
- Created a 3D CAD model of the robot in SolidWorks and made a physical prototype to perform an experiment for the research.
- Published a paper at the IEEE conference in August 2020, presenting the results of the research project, which was a continuation of my final year research project.
Mechatronics Engineering Intern
Mutual Apparels Ltd
- Completed an industrial placement at Mutual Apparels Ltd, where I assisted the project engineer in setting up the garment washing plant.
- Utilized AutoCAD to support the design engineering team in optimizing the machinery placement layout.
- Conducted a seminar on Effluent Treatment Plants and shared knowledge with the Mutual team.
