Summary
Dennis Chhun is an Assistant Controls Engineer II with nine years of hands-on experience in power systems, controls, and hardware characterization, currently completing an MS in Electrical Engineering with concentrations in Power Electronics and AI/ML. He blends lab automation and test engineering skills—Python, LabVIEW, PyVISA, and MATLAB—with field experience in controls at Valley Water and prior device R&D at Applied Materials. Dennis has driven firmware/hardware validation, developed BMS and DC-DC power electronics for Formula SAE, and led fundraising and sponsorship efforts that raised six-figure support for a university EV program. Comfortable moving between PCB-level design, probe-station device characterization, and system-level controls, he brings a pragmatic, data-driven approach to solving mechatronics and alternative-energy challenges. Colleagues value his curiosity and persistent drive to tackle difficult problems that span hardware, software, and system integration.
