Deer Park,VIC

Summary

Graduate Mechanical Engineer currently completing a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering at RMIT University (expected Nov 2025), with hands-on experience in design, analysis, and testing of mechanical systems. Skilled in CAD modelling (SolidWorks), FEA/CFD simulations (ANSYS), and project management, with a strong foundation in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and fabrication techniques. Demonstrated innovation through the development of a low-cost AEBS test platform in collaboration with Auto Innovation Centre (AIC), including a CAD/FEA-validated Accelerator Robot and planned VRU platform to support ADR98/01 compliance testing. Complemented by industry experience at Toyota Motors and Caterpillar Inc., applying maintenance, quality control, and process optimisation in real-world settings. Recognised for adaptability, problem-solving, and teamwork, with a proven ability to bridge academic research and industry applications in automotive safety, sustainable design, and mechanical systems engineering.

Work History

Project Intern

Auto Innovation Centre
Mulgrave, VIC
01.2025 - Current
  • Designed and validated an Accelerator Robot using SolidWorks CAD and ANSYS FEA (static, modal, and buckling analysis) to ensure structural integrity, stiffness, and repeatability under dynamic loads.
  • Developed a low-cost, modular AEBS test platform for ADR98/01 compliance, targeting precise throttle actuation and VRU (pedestrian/cyclist) simulation.
  • Benchmarked system performance against AB Dynamics commercial platforms, achieving ~60% cost reduction while maintaining competitive accuracy and modularity.
  • Planned and initiated design of a VRU Platform (4WD chassis with BLDC hub motors, CFRP deck, and integrated control via Raspberry Pi/Arduino), capable of simulating pedestrian/cyclist trajectories at speeds up to 60 km/h.
  • Produced a fabrication roadmap and integration strategy, including mechanical–electrical synchronization, telemetry, safety protocols, and data logging for automated compliance reporting.
