Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I spent the summer developing a new Fusion360 Add-In from scratch to product. On a typical day, I would have a short meeting with my supervisor and teammate in the morning and work on the project for the rest of the day. If there is any important issues met in development, we would have extra meeting whenever everyone is available.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes it feels very nice to be in charge of a self inclusive project and try to make it as good as I can.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I practiced my coding skill, especially Add-In development using Fusion API with python. Also, it turns out geometry and math are both very useful in the work as well, depending on the project.

Whenever needed, other departments, such as the manufacture or product release side of the company would also come to help.
