Solar Designer & Installer at Stellar Energy Contractors
Denver, Colorado, United States
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBryan Peterson is a solar designer and installer with 11 years of hands-on experience engineering residential PV and thermal systems, and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Iowa State University. He has designed and commissioned over 250 kW of photovoltaic systems and assisted with 300+ thermal panels, routinely producing NABCEP-quality plans that clear permitting, zoning, and structural review. As founder and CEO of a solar design company and former Director of Engineering at AllNuEnergy, he combines AutoCAD-driven structural calculations, NEC-compliant electrical designs, and practical field installation skills to minimize homeowner costs and avoid unnecessary service upgrades. Bryan is also comfortable with technical leadership and team management, having supervised large student IT teams and led invention development during his university research. Less obvious: he contributes backend physics and finite-element fixes to the open-source Chrono library, bringing numerical rigor to his engineering practice. Based in Denver, he is pursuing Master Electrician credentials to further deepen his electrical authority in Colorado installations.

Backend Developer & Computational Physics Engineer
Backend Developer & Computational Physics EngineerContributions:16 commits, 5 PRs, 9 pushes in 1 year
Contributions summary:Bryan's commits primarily focused on improving and extending the capabilities of the `chrono` library, which is used for multiphysics and multibody dynamics simulations. Their work included bug fixes for existing integrators and density calculations within the finite element analysis (FEA) module, specifically for shell and brick elements. Further contributions involved the implementation of new strain formulations (Hencky and Drucker-Prager plasticity models) for Brick_9 elements.
