Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Schonewille is an electromechanical engineer and mech team lead with eight years of hands-on experience in robotics, R&D, and mechatronic system design. He holds a MASc in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Toronto and a BASc in Engineering Physics from UBC, where his master’s project produced a wireless mechatronic system for microsurgical neurosurgical tools. At Omniply he leads mechanical engineering efforts, drawing on prior roles in drone robotics, additive manufacturing research, and electrochemical plant design to blend rapid prototyping, precision mechanics, and system-level integration. Adam pairs strong CAD and lab fabrication skills with experience in optics, microfluidics, and surgical device constraints—an unusual mix that helps translate delicate research concepts into manufacturable products. Outside work he’s an avid hiker, boulderer and gardener, reflecting a practical, hands-on curiosity that shows up in his engineering approach.
