Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Izzard is a Principal Electronics Engineer based in Melbourne with eight years of hands-on experience designing and delivering complex electronic systems for academia and defence. He combines systems engineering (V-model, requirements, V&V) with practical skills in PCB design, firmware for MCUs and wireless radios, EMC/signal integrity, and in-house production including pick-and-place and reflow. At Victoria University he built lab instruments, test rigs and mechanical parts (3D printing/CNC), while at Universal Motion Simulation he helped scale a reconfigurable driver simulator program and established company electronics processes and libraries. Comfortable from low-level embedded firmware to system architecture and manufacturing, he’s equally at home writing device firmware, drawing defence-compliant assemblies, or setting up a PCB production line. A musical and multimedia-trained tinkerer by background, he brings a rare blend of creative prototyping instincts and disciplined engineering practice.
