Jared Arzate

Jared graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2025. There, and during his time as an R&D intern at Sandia National Laboratories, he worked with magnetic tunnel junctions, TaOx-based resistive memory, and neuromorphic systems built from these technologies. In 2025, he was awarded the NSF GRFP to pursue his Ph.D. at the University of California, Santa Barbara, with the OPUS Lab. His research interests span a broad range of topics within neuromorphic, quantum, and edge computing. When not in the lab, you might find him on the side of a mountain, taking photos with his camera.
