Background

About Amani Evans

I’m a recent graduate of California State University, Northridge, with a degree in Engineering Management Technology and a passion for bridging engineering, cybersecurity, innovation, and business strategy. My foundation combines technical design, system analysis, and IT operations with hands-on experience in tools like AutoCAD, SolidWorks, project planning software, and embedded systems, alongside a growing interest in economic impact and market positioning. My experience spans cybersecurity awareness campaigns at RSM, where I led phishing simulations and employee training programs to IT control testing and access reviews at The Trade Desk. I also led an award-winning engineering project, designing and automating a portable UV-C water purification system using microcontrollers, CAD modeling, and 3D printing while aligning the product with a defined business model and value proposition. I’m now looking for cybersecurity, systems engineering, or technical marketing roles that allow me to grow as a cross-functional leader. I aim to combine secure infrastructure, automation, and user-driven innovation with economic analysis and market trends to guide scalable solutions. My long-term goal is to lead multidisciplinary projects that merge innovation, sustainability, and cybersecurity with real-world business value. I’m also deeply committed to empowering Black women in STEM and fostering inclusive environments where diverse voices influence the future of technology and global markets.
