Systems Engineering
Architecture, requirements, interfaces, trade studies, MBSE concepts, verification and validation, and system-level decision making.
Electrical Engineer · Systems Thinker
Engineering across systems, sensing, and the physical world.
I am CJ Evans, an electrical engineer developing toward systems engineering, EO/IR and sensor integration, prototyping, and interdisciplinary research. My work centers on understanding how components, interfaces, people, and requirements become functioning systems.
About
From components to complete systems.
My engineering background spans electrical engineering, communications and signals, component-level analysis, interdisciplinary research, and systems engineering development. I am most interested in work where physical hardware, sensing, architecture, constraints, and real-world behavior meet.
The long-term direction is technical rather than purely managerial: building and evaluating systems, exploring emerging technologies, and turning ambiguous problems into testable engineering decisions.
Engineering focus
