I’ve done everything from launch robots really fast at Mars to design new hardware for consumer electronics. I’ve been in the consumer electronics industry for about 6 years now; first at Amazon Lab126 working on wireless earbuds and FireTV connectivity solutions, and then currently at Meta working on AR/VR devices and display glasses. In the past, I was also a part-time employee at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory for 2 years. I specialized in automating and writing software integration tests for a lot of the robotics and motor control features of the Mars 2020 rover (drive system, power distribution, telecom). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540533349227-L2KHZR091CRGKXI6DEAW/jpl-mission-control.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540532954815-9WNK59PXD8D3CMJY68WO/mars+rover.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540533168209-9V5454EGQG87WFG56LXU/mars+wheels.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540534928665-9AP9GATDO61LGXX2VC5K/octave+cad.png Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540535110836-YAZBTCARG02KRO6LEU8Y/limit+switches.gif Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540535899994-66TDTQBBT0YAF8XY9GAS/quad1.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540536596961-6DS9UEPDTD83J7CTYL0T/asherhouse1.PNG Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1540537652341-4U8A536TY4CLDV4KP1ZB/elfin+picture.jpg Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/cd39cdbb-6e54-46fe-9f22-e3acb759613d/meta_rayban.png Work - Make it stand out META RAY-BAN DISPLAY GLASSES Geometric Waveguide / Eyepiece https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/d5ab4ba8-5137-4142-acdb-4b49fb36c8d7/echo_buds.png Work - Make it stand out ECHO BUDS V2 Charging Case / Earwax Spec https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541736529902-6J2FJ5P4RS25NKVAV75N/octave.png Work OCTAVE: PIANO-PLAYING ROBOT Senior Design at UCLA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541735962146-L9ZU5NLVIUYCIQ6XF52P/Overseer+Photo+2.png Work PROJECT OVERSEER High altitude balloon project https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/afda6db9-cd15-4721-be09-cccd5ec30f7d/quest3.png Work - Make it stand out META QUEST 3 Depth Projector https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541736238574-S0891ZWNNH964250BHH7/m2020+2.jpg Work MARS 2020 ROVER Internship at NASA-JPL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541736958439-K894M4ZIMYNVGQ22XNPD/quad2.jpg Work FPV QUADCOPTER Personal project designing a quadcopter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541736881468-ZDHTIDXATJHN1JMR1YD2/elfin.jpg Work ELFIN CUBESAT PROJECT UCLA’s first CubeSat currently in orbit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1541737022817-WGX7NQ6A6GVVU47O1I4T/asherhouse2.PNG Work ASHER HOUSE Drew plans for house currently built in WeHo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1543441524584-32MO7RXGJCQGKHYQB4P9/horizon.JPG Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/1543441554527-0CVJ12YAAA85IY3FN122/render3.JPG Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bd2a3a992441bae1a3907e9/9dd5fe9f-d117-44aa-8e30-f9d81d8f3540/website_2.jpg Work https://www.samjchen.com/contact-me daily 0.75 2018-10-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1410209232219-Y3G9CSHANEQWI5VEOEWC/NT03.jpg Contact https://www.samjchen.com/papers daily 0.75 2019-07-21 https://www.samjchen.com/read-me daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5310cef7e4b08602cbfa36bf/1412689652885-P9TPK298WCTZU748L0SG/Lifestyle03.jpg Read Me
