Over the length of my degree, I had significant involvement in the university's Formula SAE team, leading up to our overall electric vehicle class win in 2022.
Throughout my time, I worked predominantly on the electrical team, carrying out design, manufacture and debugging work on the car's low voltage communication/data acquisition and 500V powertrain systems. This included work on safety critical welded aluminium enclosures for lithium polymer cells, regenerative braking implementation and wiring harness manufacture.
In later years, I worked on developing tools and plans for aerodynamic validation, as well as design of motor and inverter cooling systems
I was extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate in Formula SAE, and be exposed to such a challenging and multi-faceted environment early on in my career.
