Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Dehaven is a mechanical and automation engineer with nine years of hands-on experience designing and programming robotic systems for manufacturing and medical applications. He combines solid mechanical design skills (SolidWorks, Inventor, Creo) with robot programming for ABB and Yamaha platforms, having built vision-guided pick-and-place, glue-application, and sanding automation that moved products from prototype to production. A practical problem-solver, he has delivered cost-saving fabrication analyses (>$20k/year) and rapid-response 3D-printed PPE for healthcare workers. Matthew also pursues advanced robotics software training (Udacity nanodegrees in Robotics, Self-Driving Cars, and C++) and has demonstrated creative robotics projects—maze path planning and mobile-robot navigation—published as contest-winning videos. Based in Beacon, NY, he blends experimental research experience with production-focused automation to bridge lab prototypes and scalable factory solutions.
