Hi, I'm Lincoln!

I'm currently a Member of Technical Staff at LeafLabs an engineering consulting firm that helps many clients across the deep tech space, and previously I was a Firmware Engineer at Second Order Effects.

I've previously worked for ASML as a mechantronics intern and CircuitPython through the MLH Fellowship. I've also worked in a number of academic labs, working on research on everything from autonomous vehicles to custom CFD engines for flapping robots.

I studied Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science and have years of experience in the mechatronics/hardware development space covering mechanical, electrical, firmware and software engineering. Here are some of the cool things I've built and worked on:

• Space-rated SSDs for satellites
• Diagnostic systems for fusion reactors
• Motor controllers for space robots
• HITL's for rocket engine controllers
• Test systems for 18650 battery binning
• Optical diagnostics medical device prototype
• Vibration diagnostics on robot arms used in semiconductor manufacturing
• Small-scale simulation environment for self driving cars
• CUDA accelerated CFD for flapping robot simulations
• Live coding for microcontrollers over BLE
• Solar Powered Race Car - I was the Mechanical lead for my universities solar car team
• Autonomous firefighting robots
• 3D-Printed 3D-Printer (based on an h-bot style kinematics platform)
• custom high torque density actuators for a quadruped (that part is still in progress)
• Strobrscope - iOS app that uses a dynamically-varied framerate to visibly measure frequency
• many many robot arms, electric vehicles, random tiny projects i've forgotten about
• Checkout even more here on github or at my website here (work in progress).

I'm always interested in new opportunities and always down to chat/talk/build/whatever, so if you want to reach me you can shoot me an email at hi@lincolnroth.com or message me through my LinkedIn.
