It is my first time ever doing any kind of electronics design for my employer, currently I am still a student going for Engineering and my job title does not include engineer or design in it. I have no official contract with the project, but I worked on a working prototype of the design, and want to present it to my boss. I have questions on how to protect myself and design if there is no contract, and about how to ask for a bonus or raise based on the design if it saves the company over $150/unit buying the commercial solution.
Just want real world advice if possible kinda nervous and excited at the same time. I figured my working prototype could be used as leverage for a bonus and raise. Since they asked me to design this knowing I'm a student, I dont want to be taken advantage of by doing far superior work beyond my current pay scale and job title.
