I'm Noble Haker — an engineer who communicates clearly and wants to be in the room where technical product meets real customer. Started college at 16. Currently leading a prosthetics design team, heading to Prague to pitch an AI startup, and looking for roles where both halves of that sentence matter.
I'm pursuing a B.S. in Intelligent Systems Engineering at UNC Wilmington, concentrating in cyber-physical systems, with a 3.43 GPA and Dean's List recognition. I graduate Spring 2027.
I started college at 16 through Isaac Bear Early College High School, completing over 50 credit hours before most people finished high school. That early start gave me a serious head start in systems thinking, embedded development, and control theory.
My most significant project is the Helping Hand Project — designing and building prosthetic devices for real clients. Last semester I helped fabricate a prosthetic hand for a young girl and was there when she tried it on. Engineering at its most direct.
Technical stack: Python, C, C++, MATLAB, Simulink, ROS2, Raspberry Pi, Microcontrollers, PID Control, Embedded Systems. I'm comfortable from firmware to high-level automation pipelines.
Lead Prosthetic Designer for UNCW's chapter of a North Carolina nonprofit building custom prosthetics for children with limb differences — free of charge. Leading a team of ~20 student volunteers through iterative design, client fittings, and fabrication.
Designed and implemented a state-feedback PID controller on a physical Quanser rotary inverted pendulum. Selected poles and eigenvalues, computed control gains, and validated performance in MATLAB/Simulink — achieving stabilization within ±3° against a ±10° requirement.
↗Programmed pick-and-place point sequences for a physical xArm 6 robotic manipulator in C++ within a ROS2 environment on Linux. Validated execution on Gazebo simulation before deploying to physical hardware using ROS2 topic architecture.
↗Tuned PID controller gains on a physical Quanser Aero 2 dual-rotor platform with IMU, pitch/yaw encoders, and DC motors. Achieved peak time of 3.508s and overshoot of 4.9% — both within spec — producing a stable, well-damped response.
My full resume covers my education, technical projects, and hands-on experience. I'm looking for the right opportunity to build on this foundation in sales engineering or applications engineering.
