Merlin Menoth

Executed structural sample fabrication to support engineering validation and customer design reviews. Developed detailed assembly instructions and process documentation for manufacturability and operator clarity. Designed pallet patterns and unit load configurations to optimize cube utilization and shipping efficiency. Built full-scale corrugated and display mock-ups to evaluate structural integrity, ergonomics, and feasibility. Prepared prototypes for ISTA ship testing including conditioning, instrumentation, and pre-test inspection. Collaborated with packaging engineers, designers, and production teams to troubleshoot structural issues, refine dielines, and improve performance. Supported documentation updates, sample tracking, and workflow organization; performed hands-on testing and material handling while applying principles of load distribution and manufacturability.

Developed 5+ packaging solutions focused on sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and durability, ensuring compliance with industry standards. Designed prototypes for corrugated and paperboard materials and used ArtiosCAD, AutoCAD, and 3D modeling tools to create renderings and technical drawings. Led collaborative, cross-functional design projects with peers to enhance creativity and functionality.
