My name is Will Kelly, I am a hardware engineer, programmer, and environmentalist.

Work

General Motors

Warren, Michigan

Wireless Hardware Engineer

I was one of three field testers for the 'TCP' module which now connects all GM cars to the cell network. So I would test in our lab and on the road to find bugs in the TCP firmware / hardware and benchmark our progress to ensure we met KPIs.

  • Understand cell network infrastructure.
  • Work with cell carrier engineers (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mo.) and hardware suppliers (LG, Continental) regularly.
  • Test bench repair.
  • Gathering customer feedback data, analyzing, and improving internal standards.
  • Power Use Analysis
  • MATLAB Scripting

Design Release Engineer

I was the main engineer responsible for the headliner and hard trim on the 2024-2026 Chevy Equinox EV, making sure it met U.S. regulations, GM standards, and was ready for the Equinox's mass production schedule.

  • International Supply Chain
  • Injection Molded Plastics
  • DFMEA

  • Meeting Production Timing

Electromagnetic Technologies Industries, Inc.

Boonton, New Jersey

ETI was a small company of ~15 people, which made radios for L3/Harris Defense, commercial cell antennas in the MHz-GHz range, and supporting cell network infrastructure.

Engineering Intern

This was my internship between sophomore and junior year of college, and my first exposure to RF engineering. I was allowed and enabled to take certain small systems from conception to validation and production.

  • Design new devices from first principles.
  • Order components to meet spec, cost, and regulation.
  • Solder components to PCB.
  • Perform initial testing like spectrum and VSWR analysis.

Education

New Jersey Institute of Technology

Newark, New Jersey

Bachelor's of Science Cum Laude, Electrical Engineering

Volunteering

Native Bloom Initiative

New Jersey's Green Spaces

I and a few friends started a nonprofit with the mission of covering New Jersey in pollinator gardens. NJ is the most urbanized state, so if we can figure out coexistnce with nature here, then it can be done anywhere.

President

I run the org, send emails, arrange plantings, lead volunteers, and manage finances.
