Ibrahim Tayyab

I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate from the ZJU-UIUC Institute with a strong foundation in mechanical product design, FEA, and prototyping.My experience spans academic R&D and freelance industry projects. As a freelancer, I’ve delivered CAD and mechanical systems for compact appliances, industrial workflows, and sheet-metal consumer products. In my senior design project, I led the full mechanical design and prototyping of a 2-DOF spherical induction motor—integrating laser-cut stators, custom jigs, and a modular aluminum frame with tight tolerances.I’m proficient in Creo, Inventor, Python, MATLAB, and Excel, and comfortable working across cross-cultural teams.

I'm open to mechanical design or R&D roles globally and excited to join innovative teams where design and manufacturing meet.

Delivered mechanical design and CAD solutions for clients across consumer and industrial sectors.Key Projects:

• Engineered a compact, commercially sold electric water heater (full Creo CAD + BOM)• Designed sheet metal components for a dual-use camping grill/fireplace with DFM-ready files• Built layout plans for industrial machinery relocation, improving floor workflow efficiency• Developed a complete powder coating system (oven, booth, conveyor integration)• Created street lamp and air aperture assemblies optimized for manufacturing constraints• Designed a hydraulic pole-straightening machine with FEA-supported structural validationTools: Creo Parametric, Inventor, FEA, Excel, Python, MATLAB

B.Eng.
