About Helen Xu

Currently Robotics Engineer and an Engineering Manager at Honeybee Robotics, I am primarily a mechanical design engineer with an expertise in electromechanical systems. Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of taking projects through all phases including conceptual trade, prototyping, detailed design, flight build, and verification testing. These experiences have given me not only a strong design and CAD background, but also great hands capabilities in integration and testing. Team-wise, I have successfully delivered results as an individual contributor, technical lead, independently, as well as in collaboration with internal and external customers.
