Inioluwa Oni

I'm a mechanical engineering student who enjoys turning ideas into working hardware—from robotic arms and vehicle systems to RF testing.

I work across CAD, prototyping, controls, and hands-on testing to take projects from a first sketch to a functioning system.

Selected work

Engineering is more than a render.

I focus on what happened after the first design: the build, the failure, the test, and the next iteration.

About + capabilities

Mechanical fundamentals, applied across the full development cycle.

I'm pursuing a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering at Alabama A&M University. I enjoy projects where CAD, hardware, software, and experimental data have to work together—not just independently.
