About / Engineering profile

Mechanical systems, technical tools, and products that make complexity usable.

I'm Shafiq Amat, a Mechanical Engineering student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. My work sits at the intersection of physical design, controls, manufacturing, and software.

How I work

One system, viewed from several useful angles.

Physical systems

Mechanisms, tooling, packaging, and manufacturable design from concept through validation.

Controls + embedded

Sensors, PID, state estimation, firmware, and real-time systems that respond to the physical world.

Analysis

FEA, thermal-fluid systems, MATLAB/Simulink models, instrumentation, and uncertainty-aware testing.

Product systems

Internal tools and data-backed workflows that help technical teams make better decisions.

Current threads

Where the work is happening.

Industry

Mechanical design + manufacturing

At Trust Automation, I work across CAD, tooling, manufacturing documentation, controlled revisions, and production problem-solving.

Community

Theta Tau SLO

I build and maintain the chapter site and its private ME student platform, including curriculum planning and shared professor reviews.

School

Mechanical engineering at Cal Poly

I am pursuing a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a focus spanning controls, mechatronics, thermal systems, and mechanical design.

Contact

Let's build something useful.

I'm open to internships, collaborations, and engineering work that connects thoughtful design with real-world use.
