Hi!
My name is Alex Barkin, and I'm very glad you found my website!
I'm currently a member of the Mechatronics class of 2022 at the University of Waterloo. I am going into my third year of studies and have had 3 co-ops ranging from mechanical design to software design.
My first coop placement was at Design Plastics International
(DPI) from May-Aug of 2018. DPI is a small company which
designs, prototypes, and builds displays for stores and
tradeshows. Here I got to get hands on experiences with
manufacturing techniques, the design process, and working with
clients to make sure the end product is just right! Be sure to
check out more details on my Resume.
My second coop placement was at Wave HQ from Jan-Apr of 2019.
Wave is a start up in Leslieville, Toronto that provides
financial solutions for small businesses. This coop, I was on
the Machine Learning Team, and Learned a lot about working with
Machine Learning models, and how to leverage them in data
analysis. Be sure to check out more details on my Resume.
My third coop placement was also at Wave HQ, but, from Sept-Dec
of 2019. Wave is a start up in Leslieville, Toronto that
provides financial solutions for small businesses. This coop, I
was on the accounting platform Team, and focused on well
designed, maintanable, and reusable code. Be sure to check out
more details on my Resume.
I enjoy travelling the world with my friends & family and discovering new adventures along the way. I also have a passion for Jeeps, especially Wranglers! I am always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow my skills as a young engineer.
Now that you're here, take a look around!
