@amrabdelwahed
Technical Support Engineer working on marine machinery and automation; built a pneumatic rehabilitation glove.
What I'm looking for
As a Marine Engineer on Tugboat Damen 2208, I maintain engine and auxiliary machinery and troubleshoot electrical and automation faults. I also monitor engine and electrical systems.
For my E-JUST graduation thesis, I built a five-actuator pneumatic glove for assistance-as-needed rehabilitation. I designed a soft force sensor and upgraded the prototype to Arduino-driven relays and solenoid valves.
I diagnosed unreliable pressure-sensor readings and recommended a replacement. I also trained a Decision Tree classifier on flex-sensor data to detect grip status and wrote a 70+ page thesis.
My projects include an Arduino fire-fighting robot, a wireless gesture-controlled robot, and a Python/Keras image classifier. I’m seeking a fully remote entry-level Technical Support, Application, or Solutions Engineer role.
