Overview

At Qwadra Vancouver, I work as a software developer on Canfit, Qwadra's computer-aided design (CAD) application for orthotics and prosthetics (O&P). Practitioners use Canfit for repeatable, measurable digital rectification and design of custom devices—starting from a 3D patient or cast scan, manual measurements, or both, then applying intuitive tools and templates to reach anatomically correct modifications.

Canfit is built to be easy to learn while staying anatomically correct, and it is compatible with existing CAD/CAM solutions on the market so labs can fit it into the equipment they already use. My day-to-day work is on the long-lived Windows desktop codebase—primarily C++ with MFC—where precision, stability, and clear clinical workflows matter as much as the 3D tools themselves.
