Role Description
Electrical and Systems Engineering Intern
May 2026 - Aug 2026
As an electrical engineering co-op, I supported the development, integration and validation of prototype agricultural spray systems. My day-to-day work involved designing and fabricating wiring harnesses, assembling and debugging PCBs, and flashing or configuring sensors prior to integration. I was also responsible for the assembly of control boxes and sensor-hubs, before interconnecting subsystems and verifying system functionality through stress-testing and field-testing. In addition to the hands-on work, I authored technical reports and developed internal standards and testing procedures based on component datasheets and first-hand experimental findings.
Some of my key responsibilities:
Designed wire harnesses using Rapid Harness software by identifying application-specific requirements and selecting materials
Carried harness designs through fabrication, testing and installation
Assembled PCBs and validated behavior by rigging test setups, taking electrical measurements, and analyzing oscilloscope data
Planned component layout for control boxes and sensor-hubs before assembling, testing and integrating into spray systems
Wrote technical reports to outline testing methodology, results and recommendations for further engineering analysis
Developed standardized testing procedures and harness manufacturing guides for internal company reference
Drove the design and construction of a standalone spray system testing platform to reduce prototype downtime
Major Projects
Testing of Embedded Vision Subsystem
I was responsible for testing and validating the embeddeded vision assembly for the company's proof-of-concept ground spray bar. I carried out thermal tests under varying computational and environmental conditions and analyzed temperature data to evaluate thermal performance and operating margins. I also tested the power-distribution system under different camera, lighting, and AI-processing loads and investigated abnormal electrical behavior. The test results allowed engineers to make hardware modifications, and allowed me to identify trends in loading and develop recommendations for improving future testing procedures.
Spray System Testing Platform
To reduce the downtime of production spray systems and enable isolated/modular testing, I drove the initial design and construction of a dedicated mobile spray system testing platform. The platform was intended to provide the foundation for future HIL testing. While the platform was based on pre-established system architecture, I was responsible for planning the physical layout, designing and fabricating the harnesses and control box, machining the test cart and component mounting hardware, and integrating the electrical, mechanical, and fluid-delivery systems.
Some of the control boxes and sensor hubs that I assembled, created harnesses for, and integrated into spray systems.
