Jaron Plotkin

I am a third-year mechanical engineering student with hands-on experience in design, prototyping, machining, and embedded systems. My work includes leading a four-person team to develop Snow JAMD, a salt-dispensing snow shovel nominated for the Ohio State Engineering Design Showcase with a verified 0.1 oz/s distribution rate and 15 lb capacity, independently building an Arduino-powered automated desktop bowling system with self-setting pins and real-time scoring, and precision machining an air piston rated to 4000 RPM with ±0.005" tolerance. I bring strong problem-solving skills, rapid prototyping ability, and a results-driven mindset to engineering internships.
