About Me

Hello! My name is Mikhail Hyde and I am a Mechatronics Engineer currently located in Boston Massachusetts.

 

​I have been building (and breaking) things for as long as I can remember and developed the engineering bug early in my life. I am always eager and excited to learn new technologies and disciplines to diversify my skill set.

I graduated from The University of Rhode Island in 2018 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. I elected to take courses in Mechatronics and Electrical Engineering and furthered my studies, independently, post-graduation.

Experience

Experience

April 2022-Present

Systems Integration Engineer

FORMLABS

  • Brought together firmware and hardware to enable subsystems in the printing pipeline

  • Delivered fully-functional 3D printer and subsystem prototypes.

  • Debugged system level issues and collaborated with the other engineering teams to implement design fixes.

  • Designed, wrote, validated, and shipped C++ and Python based printer software features.

  • Conducted extensive testing through planning and execution to inform design changes, design requirements, and product offerings.

  • Built internal tooling in the form of C++ and Python software to provide unit insight, enable streamlined experimentation, and support the work of other engineers

June 2021-March 2022

Senior Systems Validation Engineer

SHARKNINJA

  • Lead the design and implementation of automated test fixtures for rapid and repeatable testing of Ninja products using Linux, Python, C++, Raspberry Pi, and microcontrollers

  • Developed a software base of Python tools that enabled test engineers to control their respective products with abstracted serial commands. Tests could be developed in minutes and run indefinitely.

  • Collaborated with CS and Data Engineers to upload the large data sets from these fixtures into Cloud Servers and Business Charting services like Snowflake and DOMO.

  • Lead the development of an isolated network so each “node” or test station could share data with a central data server where data was cleaned, padded, and then shipped to the cloud

  • Supported automated testing with hardware peripherals such as automated water delivery and mechatronic manipulators

  • Used electronic “hacking” methods to reverse engineer competitor products and automate competitor benchmarking by simulating user inputs

  • Maintained large software repositories worked on by many engineers, simultaneously.

  • Fixtures had a high ROI by reducing the cost of common test procedures by up to 85% per ECN

June 2018-June 2021

Mechanical Engineer

EMISSIVE ENERGY CORP

  • Designed a Press-Fit monitoring system using Python, Load-Cells, and Break-Beam Sensors which provided real time

  • assembly feedback and automatically logged every operation in an easy to read excel format

  • Designed production ready PCBs and generated schematics for all in-house electronics using Altium Designer

  • Developed a system/fixture for calibrating PIC built-in temperature sensors using UART communication between the

  • PICs and a Raspberry Pi running a Python program

  • Maintained large CAD assemblies, technical prints, and designed parts using PTC Creo

  • Optimized thermal regulation of high powered LEDs through fin design and material selection

  • Generated GCode and set up In-House CNC machines for prototyping parts and full-scale production

  • Managed Prusa i3 3-D printers with Raspberry Pi Web Servers for rapid prototyping and fixturing needs
