Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Whittaker is a systems engineer with nine years of hands-on experience designing embedded systems, power electronics, and electromechanical hardware from concept through compliance. Based in California, he has worked directly with automotive Tier 1 customers to optimize hardware for cost, efficiency, and EMI/EMC while developing ARM microcontroller firmware and test automation tools. He designs mixed-signal PCBs and multi-board assemblies using KiCad and Cadence tools, builds functional prototypes with CNC/3D printing, and contributes product documentation and visuals. Jack helped implement Qi2.x wireless charging features, attended Wireless Power Consortium plugfests, and pairs firmware work with modern web-based demo GUIs. A UC Irvine computer science and engineering graduate and self-described maker, he blends rapid prototyping instincts with production-focused engineering discipline. Notably, he moves fluidly between low-level firmware, hardware layout, and customer-facing integration—reducing time-to-compliance and accelerating product adoption.
