Bang (bill) Tran

Hi, my name is Bill. I am a mechanical engineer with 4 past internships and more than 20 full-fledge engineering projects under my belt. My expertise spans hardware-system design, asset reliability, and facilities optimization, backed by hands-on manufacturing and systems integration experience. I enjoy learning, being challenged, and solving engineering challenges no matter the difficulty.

You can find all sorts of experiences in my portfolio:

  • Mechanical engineer design: investigate, analysis, design, prototype, validate

  • System integration: hardware-software interface, sensor integration, data processing and analysis

  • Manufacturing hands-on: machine operation, tool handling. Installed 250 Honda Civic’s engines to chassis per day for 4 months.

  • Machine Learning Applications: build, code, and train ML model

Education
