Aryan Hirpara

Currently pursuing my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of New Haven and working as a Design Engineering Intern at HyAxiom (Doosan), with expertise in product design, structural analysis, basic component CFD/FEA, and compliance validation. I am interested in joining Medtronic because of its innovative contributions to healthcare technology and its mission to improve and save lives. This role aligns perfectly with my skills and interests in R&D Engineer, Mechanical Design Engineer, and Product Engineer positions, where I can apply my engineering expertise to develop high-quality, reliable, and impactful products.
