I develop complex ideas into buildable, working systems by bringing together design, electronics, code, and validation for a final system that works reliably and reproducibly. Background PhD neuroscientist and biomedical engineering postdoc at UBC’s School of Biomedical Engineering. My job is to design experiments, develop research instruments, and pair them with analysis pipelines for publications and open-source release. This same toolkit extends to non-research projects, including prototype mechanisms, instrumentation, and production-ready CAD. Highlights • Experience: 13 years designing and developing custom experimental equipment, including collaborations with industry partners. • Design Portfolio: 3 complete behavioral systems with 10+ total instruments deployed. • Methods Publications: 2 first-author peer-reviewed papers and 2 preprints detailing my systems. Core Skills • Design and Fabrication: SolidWorks CAD (assemblies, drawings, motion, rendering), DFM, jigs & fixtures, ECAD, wiring harnesses, soldering/rework, laser/waterjet, CNC mill/router, FDM/SLA 3D printing, manual mill/lathe • Control and Robotics: embedded systems; closed-loop control; motion control; embedded C/C++, Python, ROS, AVR/ARM MCUs, Raspberry Pi, I2C/UART/SPI/EtherCAT, DC/Stepper/Servo, GRBL, timing/TTL syn. Approach My approach to design is grounded in practicality: tailor designs to the fabrication methods available and sufficient to make them. I enjoy working with both technical and non-technical creators alike. Whether you need a rough concept 3D model based on a back-of-the-envelope sketch or a full parameter-driven multi-component, multi-material mechanical assembly, I’m here to help translate your idea into a real, buildable product.

Roy Wickrama is a mechanical engineer/designer since 2005 where he is an expert user of Autodesk Inventor (with Autodesk vault professional). Having landed in Canada (Vancouver) in 1988, he was eager to be working as a mechanical engineering design professional despite he was a machinery and equipment maintenance engineer before coming to Canada. Took a multitude of part time CAD and VB programming courses. He also took BCIT - Diploma in Mechanical Engineering Design Technology in 2003. He is a hard worker and continuously upgrade his CAD design and drafting skills and find solutions to work faster, smarter and free of errors. His Autodesk Inventor skills is excellent: Always explore how to create better sketches, consider modelling with design changes and detailing friendly. Use iLogic rules to ease the process of modelling and creating production drawings with accuracy. Use Autodesk Inventor forum to gain more skills. With his fully functional home office setup, he is looking forward to helping the design and manufacturing industries, mechanical design professionals and consultants to achieve their project or production goals. His home office resources (currently): Desktop-1: Dell precision 32 GB RAM Desktop-2: Dell precision 64 GB RM/1TB SSHD/1TB HD Autodesk Inventor Professional - 2021 with Vault Professional and some third party tools SolidWorks Professional - 2020 Mathcad Prime 6.0 Office 365

I am Santiago Alarcón Acosta, a mechanical design-focused industrial designer with over a decade of hands-on experience in product development. I excel at design for manufacturing, prototyping, and CAD/CAM, turning complex concepts into production-ready drawings and 3D models using SolidWorks, Rhino 3D, and AutoCAD. I believe in the power of teamwork and cross-disciplinary collaboration. I’ve led multidisciplinary design teams, managed vendor relationships, and driven human-centred design and design thinking to deliver innovative solutions on time and within budget. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and I enjoy solving challenging manufacturing problems through creative, practical approaches.
