I am a mechanical engineer for robotics and motion control systems and integration aiming to support companies in their effort to develop new products, update existing ones, or even to develop their own equipment to improve production. I have 15 years of experience in product development, both in large enterprise at Caterpillar and in my own company, Velocity Robotics, as an entrepreneur. I have been on both sides of the freelance relationship and understand what it takes to maximize the value provided to my clients. If you need to build a robot or automated system from scratch or upgrade an existing system, I can help. If you need to specify components like stepper motors, bearings, or even perception components like cameras or radar, I can help there too. If you need to write software, either embedded or on a platform like ROS, or if you need to collect and analyze data from your system, I can do those as well. Finally, if you need another pair of eyes on a system you're developing, I'm happy to help. I have a lot of experience with all sorts of complex systems that combine mechanical, electronic, and perception-based components, and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to meet you and discuss your system and how I can help. Sincerely, Brad Kriel
