Robert Cairns
Aerospace/ Mechanical Design Engineer @ Stralis (YC W23)
About
I'm a designer and maker with skill in mechanical design, 3D modelling, prototyping and fabrication - transforming numerous concepts into physical products. With broad experiences covering high precision jewelry fabrication, digital sculpting, mechanical industrial design and advanced physics analysis and simulation (CFD/FEA), I draw from a diverse collection of skills to problem solve and innovate. I am a skilled 3D digital sculptor with deep knowledge of several 3D design software workflows. Together with high resolution 3D resin printing and casting, I create detailed organic sculptural manufactured objects. My industrial experience as a mechanical design and project engineer covers pneumatic control systems, gas fired power stations, LPG and natural gas pipelines, gas conditioning, metering and regulation stations. I've been responsible for detailed piping and station designs, fabrication/installations/commissioning reviews, procurement, 3D modelling and analysis/simulation. I hold an undergraduate degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering with honors from the University of Queensland.
