Apple | Product Design Engineer
Mac R&D Intern | Characterization and Advanced Prototyping
(Jan - Aug 2024)
Unfortunately, I cannot share any visuals from my time at Apple...​
-
Worked within the characterization and advanced prototyping branch on developing early-stage Mac architecture while collaborating with industrial design, human factors, manufacturing, and reliability to bring new technology to market
​
-
Provided design recommendations based on characterization research which were integrated into early Mac prototypes
​
-
Visualized mechanical trends and heatmaps based on load cell data processed in MATLAB scripts and JMP
​
-
Designed 5 modular test vehicles utilizing Siemens NX to explore dynamic rotational motion through CT scans
​
-
Characterized impact damage boundary of new architecture in an embedded input module with shock tower analysis
​
-
Analyzed performance of plastics, metals, glass, and adhesives under static and cyclic loading conditions, identifying failure modes and informing design changes that optimized product reliability and user experience
​
-
Compiled learning from design of experiments for accelerometer impact testing combined with HSV cameras/digital image correlation into standard operating procedures for downstream gage repeatability and reproducibility (GR&R)
