Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAshad Farhan is a Senior Electromagnetic Engineer with a decade of experience developing advanced motor and drive technologies for industrial and power-tool applications. Currently researching next-generation motors at Odys Aviation, he previously led R&D and technology roadmaps at Milwaukee Tool, specializing in BLDC topologies, FEA-driven electromagnetic optimization, and proving concepts through hands-on prototyping and test plans. His academic work at WEMPEC on ultra-high-speed, magnetically levitated (bearingless) machines and Python/JMAG optimization frameworks bridges cutting-edge research with practical product development. Comfortable coordinating across NPD, manufacturing, and cross-functional teams, he pairs deep electromagnetic theory with manufacturing-aware design and is known for translating complex FEA results into actionable hardware and onboarding materials. An uncommon strength is his blend of high-speed motor expertise and power-electronics experience from earlier roles, enabling holistic system-level improvements rather than isolated component gains.
