With a strong focus on the nuclear industry, I have gained valuable experience in innovation and sustainability, contributing to projects and business development at Kinectrics. In addition to my nuclear industry experience, I have also undertaken roles in research and development, where I honed my expertise in 3D CAD modelling, mechanical designing, and problem-solving, further enhancing my skillset.

As part of the central team, the Innovation Hub, I have played a key role in developing business cases for the Boston Dynamics SPOT robot for remote inspection and maintenance of nuclear power plants. I successfully led drone demonstrations for nuclear and non-nuclear inspections, prioritizing safety through Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and Pre-Job Brief (PJB) protocols. My work also included in-depth analysis of nuclear licensing and regulations, researching potential revenue opportunities from national laboratories, and developing a software to monitor New Product Development (NPD) projects' progress and revenue forecasts.

Our objective was to evaluate challenges doctors face during tumour removal using endoscopic scissors for cancer research. We designed a specialized endoscopic scissors to address these issues, employing Siemens NX for CAD modelling. We successfully patented the innovative endoscopic scissors design.
Patent Published - June 17, 2021 - “A scissors-needle system for intra-cavitary hydro-dissection and excision of tissues” - WO2021116776

The Małopolska Energy-Efficient Building Laboratory is a 6-storey laboratory built for research on low-energy buildings for a sustainable future. As part of the internship, I assisted in designing and analyzing a heat exchanger using Autodesk Fusion360 and Ansys. The goal was to transfer heat from hot kitchen air to cold water, providing heated water for restrooms, thus saving energy.
