Ontario Die International (ODI) is a global leader in precision tooling and advanced automation systems, specializing in die design, manufacturing, and robotic integration for the automotive and materials manufacturing industries. With a strong international presence, ODI provides high-performance solutions that combine cutting-edge robotics, precision engineering, and robust manufacturing processes helping large-scale production facilities improve efficiency, consistency, and product quality.
As a Robotics Testing Engineer in the testing department, I worked on autonomous die-bending robotic systems, focusing on software validation and system reliability. My responsibilities included:
Software Validation & Reliability – Conducted rigorous testing of robotic die-bending software updates to confirm bug fixes, identify issues, and ensure systems met operational standards before deployment.
Test Case Development – Designed and implemented structured test case modules to validate new and existing software functions, measure performance against industry standards, and create a foundation for future testing and quality assurance.
Documentation & Training Support – Structured test modules were designed to also serve as procedural documentation for future training resources in international production facilities, standardizing system integration and operation worldwide.
Through this structured approach, I helped improve the stability and efficiency of ODI's robotic automation systems and supported their readiness for global deployment.
Die-Bending Robotic System for Software Testing & De-Bugging
This internship significantly strengthened my expertise in robotics, software validation, and system integration within a fast-paced manufacturing environment. The test frameworks I developed not only reduced deployment risks and aided in identifying software issues but also enhanced long-term consistency across ODI’s international facilities. More broadly, the experience gave me valuable insight into the critical role of automation in precision manufacturing, while sharpening my structured, analytical approach to solving complex engineering challenges.
