Hey there! My name is Darwin Clark I'm currently pursing an undergraduate co-op degree in computer engineering at the University of Waterloo after graduating from Bainbridge Island High School in 2021.

I have over 1.5 years of internship experience across 5 different companies in industries such as consumer electronics, automotive, and defence. My technical focus is in systems engineering, embedded design, and PCBA design. Specifically, I have intimate knowledge of C, C++, Altium, and VHDL. I hope to apply these skills in areas such as driver development, board bringup, and general-purpose embedded systems work.

Projects / Work I'm Particularly Proud of

2023

  • Contributed to testing and documentation of FatFS based SD card drive for WARG flight computer (C)
  • Completed 4-month internship at Anduril Inductries developing Avoinics hardware and firmware (Anduril)
  • Developed firmware and controls for 200W battery emulation platform, used for EOL and DVT testing (C/Altium)

2022

  • Designed a theoretical high-efficiency buck converter for use on WARG competition drone (spreadsheet)
  • Finished a 4-month internship at Ford of Canada developing infotainment software (kotlin/java)
  • Selected IO port configuration on STM32L5 as part of the third iteration of the flight computer board (Altium)
  • Implemented FSM as part of ECE 124 (Digital Logic) final project to simulate air conditioning unit (VHDL)
  • Developed hardware-software interface for next-generation of testing fixtures at (Pure WaterCraft)

2021

  • Designed and assembled small form-factor PCB based around 10-bit ADC as part of firmware bootcamp for WARG team members (Altium)
  • Collaborated with head roaster of Pegasus Coffee company to integrate graphical analysis with roasting process (R)
  • Assisted part-time with assembly and embedded systems prototyping for (RipeLocker LLC)
    • Later went on to design a proof-of-concept low-power BLE device to measure in-chamber respiration data (C++/PlatformIO)
  • Wrote a mock professional statics paper in LaTeX based investigating true randomness in microcontrollers (PDF)
  • Led the Innovation Challenge sub-team during the first ever virtual FIRST Robotics Competition season (Custom Gantt Chart)

2020

  • Collected and graphically analyzed public CWOP temperature data for 2020 ASA Poster Submission (R/GGPlot2)
  • Developed the framework for a FRC-code compatible wireless-enabled Tetrix bot for new member training(C++/Embedded)
  • Made first foray into PCB design with a AVR328-based 'badge' to be worn by drive team members at competition (kicad)

2019

  • Under the supervision of mentor Ted Larson-Freeman, supported robotics drive team by providing live data analytics during competition (R/Python)
  • Finished 2-year development of computer vision system for assisted motions in the driver-operated and autonomous period (Python/OpenCV)

N.B not all listed projects were completed entirely by me. Many were collaborative endeavors and attribution has been given when appropriate.
