Gaven Hayden-town is a control systems engineer with nine years of hands-on experience bridging industrial automation, robotics integration, and technical training. He combines PLC and HMI development (TIA Portal, WinCC) with Yaskawa robotics and sensor integration to deliver safety-rated automated work cells across West Coast manufacturing. His background at Apple as a technical trainer and device technician honed rapid learning and clear technical communication, which he pairs with practical project ownership from design and documentation through installation and customer support. Academic research at Sonoma State produced a wireless wearable robotic control system and a breath VOC sensor project that progressed through entrepreneurial I-CORPS validation, reflecting both inventive thinking and market awareness. He has built tooling to automate quoting and BOM workflows using Python and VBScript, reducing administrative friction for engineering teams. Comfortable leading small teams and training end users, he blends field-tested engineering with a knack for translating complex systems into usable solutions.
