Tom Elliot

Integrate with product team as a technical expert to ensure sensor systems are designed, validated and manufactured successfully.

Prototype a variety of systems, from novel analog front ends to web based user experiences.

Developed industry's lowest power heartrate sensor: the first wrist worn HR sensor to track your heart rate all day, every day for a week. Productised HR sensor for Fitbit Surge, including developing manufacturing tests and putting out fires on the factory line. Developed relevant IP. Interfaced between R&D team and engineering teams (HW, FW and Mechanical). Analog & digital circuit design. Analog and digital analysis, troubleshooting and optimisation. Ultra low power electronics design.

Electronics design support and research: Managed thermal testing of tailgate prototype, alleviating team workload. Developed a PCB to increase efficiency of software development. Analysed faults in and redesigned critical circuitry, thereby future-proofing a product. Enabled research into cost reduction by modelling motors using LabVIEW. Produced development reports related to both research and testing. Learnt and practiced schematic drafting (Zuken, Protel).

Managed a long term experiment, producing an in-depth report. Enabled a new experimental setup by designing LabVIEW software. Assisted in building custom components for test equipment.
