Summary
Timothy Zhu is a systems engineer with nine years of hands-on experience designing and integrating electrical and telecommunication systems for aerospace, defense, and commercial hardware. He has led hardware design, FPGA/microcontroller programming, and component testing across roles at Sierra Nevada Corporation, Naval Surface Warfare Center, GEOTAB, and TTM Technologies, translating operational requirements into MIL-STD compliant flight systems. Comfortable bridging engineering and project management, he has driven trade studies, failure analyses, and multidisciplinary coordination to move complex avionics and networked systems from concept to flight-ready hardware. His background includes reducing costs and downtime on large infrastructure projects and prototyping robust power and control schematics for test and production. Based in New York, he combines field-proven electrical design skills with practical systems-level thinking, often surfacing non-obvious reliability issues early through rigorous testfixture and characterization work.
