Ian Cummings

Electrical & Software Engineer

Belmont Medical Technologies • July 2023 - December 2023

- Technical lead on a machine learning project implemented in C to try to detect a low frequency failure mode

- Lead on an error code investigation ocurring on field units. Developed a DOE and testing framework to find root-cause of error

- Developed an interfacing GUI compatable with every device using Python, which utilized serial communication to commmunicate with the device for logging, live data plotting, and manual controls.

- Developed an automated testing unit using a Raspberry Pi, solenoids, actuators and an AC power relay to cycle the battery charging/discharging. Developed a custom PCB to route signals, monitored status with testing machine over serial, and sent out automated emails if testing failed.

- Developed an accelerated-life testing scheme to characterize degredation of device performance with different environments

- Developed Python scripts to process raw log files from various DAQs used in testing

- Analyzed electrical schematics and developed a unit simulator test for the temperature measurement workflow (hardward-software-software calibration)

Controls Software Engineer

Nuvera Fuel Cells • July 2022 - December 2022

- Developed, implemented, tested, and documented software changes to the engine control unit (ECU)

- Processed, analyzed, and visualized data from testing using Python

- Led a project to develop a new system to test and calibrate analog input pins using a National Instruments module controlled via LabView

- Ran extensive testing on engines, gathering data over the engine's CAN bus
