Andrew Lin

Working in the APD (ASIC Products Division) Systems Lab, contributing towards AI hardware, board bring-up for ASICs, component testing, and firmware validation.

Troubleshooting classroom technologies through phone calls and on-site assistance. Document and escalate system issues by entering detailed reports into a ticketing system for follow-up and resolution. Coordinate with AV team members to ensure timely response and minimal disruption to classroom activities.

Managing orders for the Cornell Systems Engineering Lab. -Created Google Apps Script automation to send personalized order notifications to requestors. -Proposed lab organization project for better inventory management and parts access

• Collaborated with other engineering firms and team leads in co-designing a thermal enclosure for the XRP Weather Station project, an embedded control system rated to function in Everest-level cold • Designed electrical systems with PoE on Xplorer, an underwater submarine focused on microplastics data analysis and algorithms for fish finding • Led and delegated projects for the electrical systems on Bipedal Operational Bot (B.O.B.), a walking robot leveraging simulation data and VR for advanced remote operation • Presented the Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP), an open-source education platform officially released in March 2025, to industry, academic, and government leaders in Washington, D.C., and at the FIRST Robotics Championship in Houston, TX • Contributed to circuit design and electrical troubleshooting for Space XRP, modeled after NASA's Astrobee, tackling autonomous operation and motor control challenges in microgravity environments • Helped compile and provided feedback on end-of-semester technical documentation to ensure clarity and conciseness for future development

• Developed programs for pressure and orientation sensor data processing, integrated with motor control and balancing algorithms • Characterized, tested, and calibrated pressure sensors for reliable operation and integration with the XRP emotion system • Compiled technical documentation on sensor calibration and data analysis to support future research and system development

• Developed an automated Raspberry Pi-driven tester in Python for third-party elevator Position Indicators (PIs), reducing testing time and minimizing errors through programmed safety protocols and automated test sequences • Created a standard wiring document in AutoCAD for a new line of elevator car operating panels intended to replace legacy fixtures, including work instructions, detailed wiring charts, and a bill of materials used across engineering, manufacturing, and field service teams • Collaborated cross-functionally with R&D, manufacturing, and external engineering teams to adapt wiring documentation and system design based on customer requirements and field installation feedback • Inspected the R&D installation of a sample build based on the standard document to assess real-world implementation and identify improvements for electrical safety and ease of on-site wiring while incorporating insights from component research • Increased efficiency of wiring chart development by creating a custom Excel VBA template to automate color coding (eliminating manual formatting steps) and AutoCAD LISP routines for batch updating and improved data consistency

• Designed and improved church tech system to integrate in-person audio/video with Zoom and live streaming software • Streamlined tech setup and operation by automating processes with software shortcuts and macros • Developed a PowerPoint VBA macro script to produce various live stream looks based on speaker notes • Aided as a consultant in troubleshooting AV system issues and making decisions on technological improvements • Trained two teams of ~4 volunteers on standard operating procedures and best practices for handling technical challenges

A two-week program involving an introductory research project on electrical engineering and embedded systems. • Developed and presented a climate sensor featuring an LED display, fan, and lights that change color based on temperature • Collaborated with a team of 5 to program and integrate electrical components using the Arduino embedded system • Troubleshot hardware/software interactions, ensuring smooth LED color transitions and reliable system operation
