@aidandaniels
Mechanical engineering student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute who designed and machined a Formula-style steering system from first principles.
What I'm looking for
At Worcester Polytechnic Institute, I’m studying Mechanical Engineering and contribute to the Formula SAE Driver Input Subteam. In the Formula SAE Club’s Steering Rack Subteam, I designed a Formula-style steering system from first principles and modeled custom components in SolidWorks and Onshape.
I produced machining drawings, validated designs with FEA, and machined custom parts on a lathe and mill. I also coordinated with suspension and chassis subteams to integrate the steering geometry, and presented three design reviews.
For my independent custom electric guitar project, I designed and 3D-printed pickup housings, assembled and wired the pickups, and iterated through three electrical configurations while troubleshooting. I’m seeking hands-on experience in engineering, design, and business.
