Overview
Engineering pressure-tolerant housings and mechanical mounts for underwater electronics. Focus on seals, thermal pathways, and structural reinforcement for long-duration underwater deployment.
Role
Lead mechanical engineer - enclosure design, pressure testing, and integration with control systems.
Challenges & Approach
Sealing electronics while providing thermal management required different sealing strategies and material choices. We iterated on o-ring geometries, housing wall thickness and performed finite-element analysis and pressure chamber testing.
Outcome
Achieved a rugged enclosure rated for operational depth with improved manufacturability and reduced maintenance turnaround during service cycles.
