Summary
Sean Yu is a hardware development engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building and automating ground support equipment for aerospace programs, currently applying automation and controls expertise to Amazon Project Kuiper. He blends a strong academic foundation in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Cornell (3.9/4.3) with practical production experience at SpaceX, where he redesigned GSE, ran ANSYS analyses, and automated test-data review with Python. Sean has a track record of end-to-end product work—from 3D-printed flight hardware and flight-control tuning on Cornell’s Unmanned Air Systems team to manufacturing facilitation and design releases in Siemens NX/Teamcenter. Comfortable moving between control systems, mechanical design, and scripting, he favors pragmatic solutions that improve ergonomics and testability. Colleagues would note his combined curiosity for flight systems and habit of turning manual processes into automated workflows.
