Highly adaptable and proactive, with proven abilities in problem-solving, structured thinking, and cross-functional collaboration. Now seeking an entry-level role in automation, control, or related fields to contribute technical expertise and grow within a professional engineering environment.

Robotic Arm Automation for Intelligent Assembly

Developed a fully automated system integrating a Mitsubishi robotic arm and conveyor belt, programmed using Melfa Basic V and RT ToolBox3. The system was capable of detecting, classifying, and assembling components based on colour and position sensors.

The project stood out for its successful implementation of continuous cyclic automation and the effective use of structured routines and subroutines, surpassing other groups in both complexity and performance.

Automated Quality Control System with PLC and HMI

Designed and implemented a quality control system using Siemens PLCs and HMI. Managed a conveyor, heater, fan, sensors, and actuator to automatically sort parts based on size and temperature.

Enabled full manual/automatic control with real-time feedback and intuitive HMI interface with security check.
