About Alejandro Jirasko

I’m a Mechanical Engineering graduate student at Georgia Tech passionate about designing products that move from concept to scalable, real-world solutions. My career has been shaped by hands-on experiences across the entire product development cycle — from early CAD design and prototyping to validation, failure analysis, and supplier collaboration.I’ve gained product design experience through internships at Amazon Robotics, Rivian, and Tesla, where I worked on robotic hardware, EV interior systems, and automation equipment. At RaveBio, a biotech startup I co-founded, I led the redesign of our flagship product, applying DFM/DFA, tolerance analysis, and rapid prototyping to cut manufacturing time by 30% and improve reliability. These roles gave me exposure to both high-volume manufacturing (stamping, machining, injection molding) and emerging processes (3D printing, composites). I also broadened my engineering foundation through internships at BMW and Michelin, where I focused on manufacturing quality, process optimization, and system integration in high-volume automotive environments.I thrive at the intersection of design, engineering, and manufacturability — solving problems that demand creativity and precision. Looking ahead, my goal is to contribute to the development of innovative, user-focused products while continuing to grow as a technical leader in product design engineering.Core competencies- 3D CAD & Prototyping (SolidWorks, CATIA V6)- DFM/DFA, GD & T & Tolerance Analysis- Failure Analysis & Validation Testing (DOE, Teardowns, CT scans)- FEA & Simulation (Ansys, HFSS)- High-Volume & Emerging Manufacturing (stamping, machining, injection molding, 3D printing, composites)- Cross-Functional Collaboration & Supplier Engagement
