Summary
Benny Ling is a graduate researcher and teaching assistant in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Oregon State University with 11 years of practical experience spanning electronics design, fabrication, and hands-on hardware validation. He mentors students in VLSI, microcontrollers, and design automation while guiding end-to-end hardware workflows using Cadence, Synopsys, KiCad, and MATLAB, emphasizing verification, documentation, and process reliability. In the lab he fabricates and tests cytometry and stretchable electronic devices through photolithography, thin-film deposition, etching, and custom PCB design, and has built a black-box PCB for power analysis experiments. A former Siemens EDA intern, Benny pairs academic research with industry-aware practices and an uncommon attention to manufacturability and testability for early-stage prototypes. His earlier retail background honed interpersonal skills and patience, which he leverages to explain complex systems clearly and lead collaborative engineering efforts. He’s focused on applying his embedded-systems and hardware-validation expertise to sectors where precision and compliance matter, such as avionics and instrumentation.
