Hi, I'm Cody!

I'm a multi-disciplinary engineer with a background in space robotics for planetary exploration.

In general, I do mechanical & electrical design and programming for hardware projects.

Currently, I'm at Caltech working on advanced astronomical instruments.

Need help designing hardware or prototyping something? I can probably help.

Here's some of my work history and personal projects.

Mechanical Engineer

Hire Me.

I’m a 'full-stack’ hardware engineer.

As an experienced mechanical designer, I can turn napkin sketches into detailed, manufacturable CAD models, drawing packages, and realistic renders. I specialize in electromechanical systems, robotics, and automation.

I can design electronic circuit boards and program microcontrollers in C or C++. I can write desktop or Android applications, in Python or Java, to interface with hardware devices. I also have experience with ROS2 for robotics applications, including sensor integration, and motion planning.

I have a small prototyping lab with a few 3D-printers, two CNC machines, and a well-equipped electronics bench.

I love new projects. If you need help making something, let's get in touch.
