Work history

Graduate Engineer

Port of Felixstowe (CK Hutchison Holdings)
Felixstowe
09.2024 - 06.2025
  • Compiled and analysed a dataset of 200+ RTG electrical arm faults over six months using Excel, categorising causes such as operator error, power instability, and uneven terrain.
  • Identified that exit-phase failures occurred over 3.7× more often than entry, leading to a collaboration with Vahle’s engineers to propose a software fix and recommend resurfacing two high-risk ground zones.
  • Assisted in testing integration of multiple sensors on autonomous trucks with Westwell engineers, reducing false detections by 40% and improving overall system stability during field tests.
  • Facilitated communication between Westwell’s Chinese engineering team and local port engineers, bridging significant language gaps to ensure technical alignment.
  • Performed vibration analysis on quay cranes to detect abnormal patterns, enabling the engineering planning team to optimise maintenance schedules and reduce unexpected downtime.
  • Maintained PLC-based control systems across 85 RTGs and 22 quay cranes as part of an 8-person electronics team, ensuring minimal downtime and quick recovery of critical port operations.
