EXPERIENCE
Abbvie | Project Engineer Co-op | Python, LLM, SDLC, Workflow Automation
Worcester, MAJan 2025 -- Aug 2025
- AI-Driven Workflow Orchestration: Engineered a Python-based automation suite utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs) to dynamically map and mobilize cross-functional stakeholder networks; reduced manual scheduling overhead across multiple organizational webs.
- Generative Systems Design: Architected an LLM-powered engine that autonomously synthesizes complex validation documentation and identifies optimal meeting synchronization points based on multi-party availability and project urgency.
- Heuristic & Network Inference: Developed logic to infer "impacted group" networks by analyzing organizational data, enabling the system to automatically identify and invite essential technical personnel for product validation tasks.
- Adaptive Feedback Loops: Built a user-input interface to refine AI inference models, allowing for real-time updates to stakeholder networks as organizational structures or project requirements evolved.
GD Electric Boat | Mechanical Engineer Co-op | Mathcad, Teamcenter PLM, Algorithmic Modeling
No. Stonington, CTAug 2024 -- Jan 2025
- Algorithm Development & Stress Modeling: Developed a complex Mathcad algorithm to automate the validation of structural components; engineered logic to process manufacturing defects and impact variables against design-spec loading simulations.
- Data-Driven Decision Support: Integrated dimensional data from hardware inspections into simulation workflows to determine part viability, reducing manual engineering review time through automated calculation scripts.
- Lifecycle Data Management: Utilized Siemens Teamcenter (PLM) to analyze thermal stresses and structural integrity, ensuring digital twins and design drawings maintained 100% compliance with NAVSEA technical standards.
- Technical Communication: Authored executive summaries and technical briefs to translate complex simulation results into actionable business decisions for senior leadership and federal clients.
Pitney Bowes | Mechanical Design Engineer Intern | C++, FFT, LLM, Signal Processing, Firmware
Shelton, CTJun 2024 -- Aug 2024
- High-Performance C++ Development: Engineered an end-to-end signal processing application in C++ to perform Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT) and spectral analysis on acoustic data; projected to save the company $5M annually through predictive maintenance.
- AI-Enhanced Psychoacoustics: Architected a software suite to automate "loudness" quantification and pitch categorization; integrated LLMs to perform heuristic inference on frequency groupings to simulate human auditory perception.
- Data-Driven Product Validation: Developed automated data collection pipelines to evaluate the efficacy of sound-dampening materials, translating raw sensor data into actionable Quality Engineering reports.
- Firmware & Hardware Optimization: Conducted full-stack troubleshooting of 3D printing infrastructure (Prusa, Modix), implementing software and hardware firmware updates to ensure high-uptime production environments.
PROJECTS
