About Soham Joshi

I’m a Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Cincinnati with over two years of hands-on experience in high-volume manufacturing, automation, and mechanical design.I’ve worked across industry and research roles, including Manufacturing Engineering at GE Appliances and Mechanical Engineering at Trew Automation, where I supported high-volume production lines, designed manufacturable components, and delivered measurable cost and performance improvements.I enjoy taking ideas from CAD and simulation through prototyping, testing, and production. My experience includes Siemens NX modeling, basic FEA, process optimization, and cross-functional collaboration with design, quality, and manufacturing teams.Outside of industry roles, I’m part of a Solar Car senior design team focused on suspension system design and vehicle performance. I’m currently seeking full-time or early-career opportunities in manufacturing engineering, mechanical design, or product development where I can contribute to real-world engineering problems and continue learning.
