Overview

This work was less about a single prototype and more about building repeatable engineering output. In a production-oriented setting, I operated and maintained a fleet of 3D printers while also preparing CNC programs for Haas machines in Fusion 360.

The challenge was to keep quality high while making the workflow efficient enough for ongoing delivery. That meant understanding machine behavior, material constraints, preparation steps, and how small process changes affect both reliability and speed.

What I Worked On

• Operated and maintained 10+ FDM and SLA printers.
• Tuned print parameters and G-code to improve quality and reduce wasted time.
• Prepared CNC programs in Fusion 360 for 3-axis and 5-axis Haas workflows.
• Worked in a practical environment where engineering quality depended on consistency, troubleshooting, and process discipline.

Relevance

I see this kind of work as a strong foundation for robotics and field hardware roles. It builds intuition for tolerances, manufacturability, failure modes, and what it really takes to turn a design into a repeatable physical result.
