Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Zheng is an aerospace engineering student and research assistant at UC Berkeley with a decade of hands-on experience in rapid prototyping, composites, surface modeling, and mechatronics applied to rocketry, solar vehicles, and propulsion systems. He blends practical lab work—designing TOF camera integrations and motor controller interfaces for a 200-ft tow tank—with leadership roles in competition robotics and student-run product operations that generated tangible revenue. Ryan has applied CFD and orbital simulation tools (Ansys Fluent, GMAT, NRLMSIS) to iterate aerodynamic and propulsion designs and has experience translating those analyses into CAD and manufacturing for composite sandwich structures. Comfortable at the intersection of hardware, software, and systems engineering, he also tutors and communicates technical results to academic and industry stakeholders, including a presentation to NASA AMES on ISAM capabilities. Notably, he pairs strong prototyping skills with market-aware analysis from startup internships, making him effective at moving concepts from simulation to testable hardware.
