• Delivered end-to-end mechanical design solutions for large-scale grocery store automation systems for
a US-based client (Fulfil Solutions).
• Developed new CAD designs and performed design reviews, modifications, and optimizations based
on client engineering requirements and change requests.
• Designed and managed multi-subassembly and top-level assemblies, integrating OTS (Off-The-Shelf)
and MTS (Made-To-Specification) components.
• Produced complete engineering and production documentation, including:
◦ Manufacturing & assembly drawings
◦ Sheet metal drawings with PEM inserts, weld nuts, and hardware
◦ Weldment drawings and welding symbols
◦ CNC machining drawings
◦ Cable drawings and wire run list tables
◦ Cut list tables, BOMs, and revision tables
• Applied GD&T, ISO 2768 general tolerances, and best DFM/DFA practices to ensure manufacturability
and cost efficiency.
• Managed product data and lifecycle using SOLIDWORKS PDM and Arena PLM, including:
◦ Item creation and structuring
◦ PREs, DCOs, and ECOs
◦ Design lifecycle control of parts, assemblies, and top-level systems
• Coordinated directly with client engineers and project leadership through technical meetings to align
design intent, timelines, and deliverables.
• Supported project management activities using Smartsheet, ensuring task tracking, documentation
accuracy, and on-time delivery.
• Led and reviewed work of junior mechanical engineers (3), providing technical guidance, design
reviews, and workflow oversight as directed by the team lead.
• Maintained structured design data management, version control, and documentation traceability
across cross-functional teams.
• Used Slack for daily inter-company communication and real-time coordination with client
representatives.
• Contributed to design automation, macros, and efficiency improvements within the mechanical design
workflow.

• Successfully completed 30+ cross-disciplinary product development projects for international clients
across consumer electronics, wearables, toys, kitchen devices, pet products, lab equipment, and
architectural models.
• Led end-to-end mechanical design and development processes using SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and
other CAD tools to deliver highly manufacturable, functionally validated designs with a focus on cost,
quality, and user experience.
• Generated detailed 2D manufacturing drawings for over 100 parts, including orthographic views, cross
sections, tolerances (GD&T), BOMs, and QA notes for machining, injection molding, sheet metal
fabrication, and 3D printing.
• Engineered products integrating multi-component assemblies using fasteners, snap-fit joints, sliding
cams, solenoid locks, push-pull mechanisms, gaskets, and sealing features, ensuring easy assembly,
robustness, and DFM compliance.
• Built and tested mechanism-rich devices, such as egg cookers, plastic dispensers, adjustable fixtures,
smart plush toys, and more — managing thermal, structural, and motion considerations.
• Spearheaded the prototyping phase of multiple products using FDM/FFF 3D printing (PLA, ABS, TPU),
validating designs for fit, ergonomics, clearance, and leak-proofing through hands-on testing.
• Designed custom electronic integration layouts: placement of PCB boards, display modules, LEDs,
microphones, speakers, switches, fans, and batteries within tight enclosures. Created snap features
and ribs for internal components.
• Developed designs for complex enclosures — including teddy bear-embedded electronics, cooling
palm devices, induction hookahs, lighting fixtures, and portable machines — with thermal insulation,
cooling ducts, cable routing, and ergonomic form.
• Collaborated with Chinese, Mexican, and global manufacturers, sourcing parts and products via Aliba
ba, 1688, Made-in-China, and on-site factory communication. Managed RFQs, MOQ negotiation,
sample inspection, and shipment tracking.
• Created and delivered inspection and QA reports, documenting mismatched manufactured
dimensions, verifying tolerances against 2D drawings, and communicating corrections with vendors.
• Developed and shared project portfolios for clients, including visually-rich reports, progress
breakdowns, documentation for manufacturers, and step-by-step assembly guidance.
• Maintained regular coordination with multi-timezone international clients for design feedback,
iteration planning, supplier follow-ups, and quality approvals.
• Took lead roles in production support, including physical inspection of samples, validation of working
mechanisms, and field testing of products (e.g., pet vests, cooling devices, electronic devices).
• Participated in rapid-turnaround projects involving LED display signs, knife card tools, architectural
models, and smart gadget enclosures, ensuring delivery on tight deadlines with high fidelity.
• Played a key role in project planning, creating detailed project schedules, risk mitigation strategies, and
development timelines (e.g., AI Teddy Device, Palm Cooling Device, Magic Table).

• Worked on multiple projects, bringing ideas to life by managing all phases of the industrial product
design process. This included understanding project goals, conducting research, developing concept
designs, and creating detailed engineering drafts with dimensioning, tolerancing, and technical
drawings for various products, parts, assemblies, and subassemblies.
• Developed mechanisms and techniques to fabricate scaled DFM-approved models of physical parts and
complex assemblies using FDM 3D printing, validating designs for manufacturability and
functionality.
• Collaborated effectively with a team to ensure timely project completion, addressing and resolving
design challenges throughout the development process.
