Computer Engineering Student
Building a foundation in software, electronics, microcontrollers, circuit debugging, and engineering design.
Computer Engineering @ University of British Columbia
Software, robotics, and AI systems built with field reliability in mind.
I am Ryan Cao, an engineering student focused on autonomous systems, embedded Linux tools, and practical robotics. I like turning hardware constraints into clean software behavior.

Profile
Engineering student with a software-first approach to physical systems.
My work sits between software engineering, robotics, and embedded systems: autonomous corridor driving, Raspberry Pi reliability daemons, GPIO-based monitoring, and mechanical gripper prototypes. I am looking for software, robotics, and AI opportunities where reliable systems matter as much as impressive demos.
Selected work
Projects that show software meeting hardware.
Capabilities
Tools I use to build and debug systems.
Background
Education and engineering experience.
Arduino and Raspberry Pi systems
Developed firmware, monitoring daemons, GPIO status indicators, thermal control, network recovery logic, and mechanical prototypes.
Contact
Open to software, robotics, and AI engineering opportunities.
Based in Vancouver. Available for internships, engineering roles, and project conversations.
