Ajing Cao, P. E.

Ajing Cao, P.E. has a diverse work experience in various engineering roles. From 2009 to 2011, Ajing worked as a Research Engineer at Northwestern University, conducting state-of-the-art modeling and simulations for a DARPA-funded project. This involved conducting FEA on CNT/Si and CNT/polymer interfaces, as well as performing fatigue analysis.

From 2012 to 2013, Ajing worked at Caterpillar Inc. as an FEA/CFD Engineer. Their responsibilities included backpressure analysis of exhaust systems, designing and analyzing DEF urea mixing components, and conducting FEA analysis for cooling and aftertreatment products. They used tools such as ABAQUS, HyperMesh, and IDEAS for analysis and post-processing.

In 2014, Ajing joined National Oilwell Varco as a Sr. Mechanical Engineer, focusing on optimizing the design of solid control equipment. They performed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis on centrifuge HS-2172, using both VOF and Eulerian models to simulate multiple phase physics.

From 2018 to 2023, Ajing worked as a Staff Engineer at Exterran, where they led the Engineering Analysis Team. They were responsible for designing and performing mechanical analysis/studies for gas process and treating plants, ensuring compliance with industrial standards. They also created and reviewed technical specifications.

Most recently, starting in 2023, Ajing joined Amogy as a Mechanical Engineering Manager.

Ajing Cao, P.E. holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Science, which was completed between 2003 and 2007. Afterward, Cao pursued a postdoctoral fellowship in Material Science at The Johns Hopkins University from 2007 to 2009. In May 2016, Cao obtained the Professional Engineer (PE) certification from the Texas Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors.
