About Me

Ryan Geng

Hi, I'm Ryan, a mechanical engineering (BSME) student at Northeastern University. This is my portfolio! It covers some of my selected projects, which span the topics of CAD, PCB design, embedded software, 3D printing, and more.

The goals of all my projects (no matter how different they may seem) are to improve people's lives; whether that's investigating a solution to a complex surgical problem, providing a template for beginners to learn from, or simply making people laugh.

I'm looking for opportunities in engineering where I can put my skills to work, fixing problems in the real world.

Skills

  • CAD — SolidWorks, Onshape, AutoCAD, Inventor
  • PCB Design — Altium Designer, KiCad
  • 3D Printing & Fabrication
  • Embedded Systems — Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino, MicroPython, Radio
  • Electronics — Soldering, Circuit Design, Amplifiers
  • FEA & Simulation — Ansys, SimScale
  • Programming — Python, MATLAB, C++, Java
  • Technical Writing & Documentation
