Worked on the UBC-Snowbots/Arm repository, delivering twelve new hardware features and resolving three bugs over five months. Focused on mechanical design and CAD-driven improvements, this developer created and refined SolidWorks assemblies, updated mate constraints, and managed tolerance adjustments to enhance part alignment and assembly reliability. Leveraging skills in 3D modeling, CAD, and mechanical engineering, they produced new motor mounts, gear holders, and spacers, while cleaning up legacy files and improving documentation for manufacturing. Using SolidWorks and STEP formats, their work enabled smoother integration with robotic subsystems, improved maintainability, and supported downstream testing and production handoffs for the Arm platform.
