About Ethan Woods
As a Mechanical Engineering co-op student from Purdue University, I am passionate about contributing to a more sustainable and efficient future. I enjoy taking on challenges and finding practical ways to solve problems through research, design, and AI. I believe the learning that takes place throughout the process is as valuable as the solution. Outside of school and work, I enjoy running triathlons, cooking, and traveling. I am resourceful and am always looking for ways to improve my life and the lives of those around me.I\'ve managed projects successfully and built strong relationships by being a dependable teammate. I\'m looking forward to what\'s next and am currently seeking a role with an engineering team that values sustainability and innovation. I am looking for a Global Co-op opportunity for the summer and fall of 2026 to apply my engineering background and French language skills while gaining global experience. If you have any opportunities where you think I may be a good fit, or have any questions about my experiences feel free to reach out!
Experience
Lead Teaching Assistant
Purdue Office Of Professional Practice
Aug 2025 — Present · West Lafayette, IN, US
Supported student learning by providing detailed feedback, grading, and leading discussions centered on Smart Cities and Infrastructure as well as professionalism. I also organized and coordinated guest speaker visits with industry professionals to enrich the course curriculum, and hosted weekly office hours for resume feedback and professional development sessions. Furthermore, I am currently leveraging LLMs to automate the cleaning of nine semesters of internship and co-op data, and developing a Power BI dashboard to make this valuable data accessible to students.
