Work History
Autonomous Systems Engineer, Simulations and Tooling Engineer
Redback Racing
Sydney, Australia
01.2024 - Current
- Heavily involved in the Simulations & Tooling and Control Systems of the Autonomous Vehicles Department in Redback Racing UNSW FSAE.
- Built excellent understanding of Linux systems through working with NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX.
• Expanded embedded systems for query, system administration, hardware integration (specially with CAN and
embedded systems), GPU acceleration (with CUDA), ROS2 framework and networking. - Worked on and revamped the CAN Decoder to convert the CAN frames into usable data for further processing for control systems.
- I worked on STM32 and MODBUS control for steering and braking for autonomous systems in the car as a Control Systems Engineer. Additionally worked on High level Controllers.
- Pioneered multiple breakthroughs and achieved significant breakthroughs in development of the Software.
- I worked with the Agile workflow here.

- Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, TOK, English, History Tutor and Mentor for those doing the IB Curriculum.
Argument Move Classification Team Project
Team Project
Sydney, NSW
05.2025 - 08.2025
- Developed a neural network architecture that can classify the polarity of a discussion argument given the gist of the
dialogue. By leveraging both the text and context, within a debate structure, the model we made seeks to improve classification
accuracy over context-agnostic approaches.
Graphic Designer
MTRNSOC UNSW
Sydney, Australia
01.2024 - 12.2024
- Drew and graphically designed the Winter Merchandise lineup for UNSW's mechatronic society MTRNSOC.
Mechatronics Engineer Intern
aKin
Sydney, Australia
09.2024 - 11.2024
- Worked in aKin robotics to improve the interfacing of their ROS2 network with their LLM.
- Tested and improved their LLM Maestro used in their mainline of products.

Development of a Kahoot-Inspired Website
UNSW
Sydney, Australia
05.2023 - 08.2023
- In COMP1531 in UNSW, we were grouped into teams and we developed a website that was inspired by the quiz website 'Kahoot'. I developed the backend of this website through the usage of JavaScript and TypeScript.
Face Tracking Camera Project
Self
Singapore
01.2022 - 12.2022
- Created a Python and Arduino IDE script that utilised the Open-CV library that used my Laptop's Camera to track my face. Judging from my face's position respective to the library, It would cause 2 SG-90 Servos to point towards my face as it moves in real time.
