What Should We Build Next?
Hi! I’m Michael Kafarowski. I have a passion for exploring new skills and ideas. I love taking things apart, learning how things work, and building and sharing new things. I strive to always improve and expand upon my technical, non-technical and interpersonal skills.
After graduating from the Mechatronics Engineering program at the University of Waterloo, I had the honor of working as an embedded electronics and software designer at World Star Tech Inc. World Star Tech is a laser solutions company based in Markham, Ontario. My days usually consisted of testing new prototypes, writing embedded C/C++ for STM32 systems, designing 3D models and PCBs, and much more.
I’m excited to have recently moved into a new role as an Electronics Designer at Crystal Fountains Inc. Crystal Fountains is an international leader in the innovation, design, and manufacturing of premium architectural water features. I work in the New Product Engineering department on circuits and firmware for sequencing products such as LED lights, motors and DMX equipment. I’ve also had the opportunity to travel on-site to Finland, Spain and the U.S.A. to provide electrical and electronics support for commissioning new fountains.
Thank you for stopping by my website. I hope you’ll enjoy learning about my work as much as I’ve enjoyed doing it.
