SENIOR INDUSTRIAL | ERGONOMICS | UI DESIGNER Action, detail-oriented, and highly accomplished industrial and product designer, with over twenty years of consulting and global corporate experience. Focused on solving complex usability problems from initial concept through commercialization. Adaptable and proficient at balancing a hands-on approach to design and understanding user needs while maintaining business goals. Accredited with numerous patents and product awards in the US, Europe, and Asia. Exceptional bilingual talent with expertise in industrial design applying professional experience and design thinking to resolve complex business problems and provide user-centered solutions. Hello, my name is Eric Zhu. I am an Industrial Design professional based out of New York City. Throughout the years, I've had the opportunity to work in top Fortune 500 companies alongside some of the most talented designers in the country including Asia and Europe. I believe teamwork and collaboration are key components for every successful design project. It’s reflected in the many successful products I designed, regardless if I was the lead designer or someone who provided ideation sketches to spark more ideas to the team. I have a hands-on approach to tackling a design problem and always love a good challenge. I can honestly say, I thrive and perform my best under pressure. Being an industrial designer has taught me to communicate my ideas not just through sketches but by utilizing an iterative process whether its building physical scale foam-core mockups or digital 2D or 3D CAD models and even VR to fully hash out the ideas that are the most effective approaches to solving design problems. My most recent experience working in the MedTech industry at Siemens Healthcare provided me with a deeper understanding of human factors and usability challenges to the lab techs who operate the complex laboratory systems. MedTech is a heavily regulated and engineering driven industry. We were faced with usability challenges and constantly trying to improve features even after a product was launched. Working in a small team provided the flexibility to work on both big and small projects. Most importantly working in a small team at Siemens Healthcare ensured a harmonized design across product lines, where we were able to ensure design checks and balances during the most rigorous internal reviews.
