Skytree harnesses CO2 from ambient air through the power of direct air capture technology (DAC). By providing local, onsite CO2 generation across multiple markets including indoor farming, greenhouses as well as mineralization, Skytree enables a transition away from fossil fuel-based industrial processes and avoids transport to where the CO2 is needed

Working as a consultant engineer via Capgemini Engineering, Working as part of scrum team, I was tasked with a variety of projects within the machine conditioning and Tin Mechanics departments on both the EXE and DUV machine lines.

Led effort to integrate new IT network and PLM system into the existing structure without disrupting production. o Created process maps, highlighted single point failures, carried out a depot wide stock take, created technical documents, manuals and reports. o As a result, the IT network integration was successful in all buildings, full stock take led to profit from selling excess/unnecessary stock, single point failures were highlighted.

Tasked with designing and producing working manufacturing drawings for the Production and Science departments. o Used the CAD (NX) to create rigs, fixtures, components and tools, backed up designs with hand calculations and FEA (NASTRAN). o Produced components compliant with the environments, including Bio-hazardous, Explosive, Pyrophoric and Microscopic. Considered manufacturing techniques including CNC / 5-axis machining, injection moulding, rubber and plastics forming.
