# Justin Min > Mechanical Engineer Location: Sunnyvale, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/justinmin Hello! My name is Justin and I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate from the University of Waterloo. Broadening my perspective of the engineering world is key to me and I welcome different challenges to help me develop as an engineering student. Previous experience in product development and industrial engineering have exposed me to the different sides of design and manufacturing, and I aim to expand on that experience and gain exposure to various mechanical systems throughout my career. I am someone who believes that attitude and skill are equally important in the workplace. When given a task, I am not afraid to ask meaningful questions after learning what I can and I will approach tasks with drive and enthusiasm. I will pull from previous knowledge and build upon it with new information to create the best possible solution for the challenge that is presented. Feel free to reach out and I will be happy to talk! ## Work Experience ### Mechanical Engineer @ Mainspring Energy Jan 2025 – Present | Menlo Park, California, United States ### Associate Mechanical Engineer @ Mainspring Energy Jan 2022 – Jan 2025 | Menlo Park, CA Liquid cooling systems design and ramping for high-volume production ### Product Development Co-op @ Christie Digital Systems Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | Waterloo, Ontario, Canada My main term project at Christie Digital was to develop a series of thermal tests to determine the thermal profile and passive cooling effectiveness of the MicroTiles LED video wall product. By simulating real-world installations and display content, and setting up thermocouples at various points of interest around the video array, I was able to collect thermal data that was used to draw important conclusions about the system's cooling performance. ### Mechanical Designer (Automation Designer) @ RAMP Inc. Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | Waterloo, Ontario, Canada During my co-op term at RAMP, I was a part of the Mechanical Design team. My main term project was the development of a standalone automated cell producing sub-assemblies used in an automotive OEM's slide-out tailgate product. I worked with other engineers, toolmakers, and our customer to apply existing best practices in automation mechanical design to new concepts to create an effective and efficient final design. ### Mechanical Designer (Automation Designer) @ ATS Automation Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | Cambridge, Ontario, Canada At ATS, I was a member of the Mechanical Design and Applications team. I developed a stator coil wire gripper used in EV electric motor production and I helped develop a controls enclosure for a nuclear reactor heat transfer pump inspection robot. When the COVID-19 pandemic began worsening over Spring 2020, I developed equipment to enable high-volume N95 respirator production. By researching existing production methods for several types of respirators, I created several early production processes and tooling concepts. ### Mechanical Designer (Railcar Fixture Designer) @ National Steel Car Ltd Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 | Hamilton, Ontario For my third co-op at National Steel Car, I was a member of the Process Engineering team. I led several large fixture and tooling designs and upgrades to accelerate freight railcar production across five manufacturing lines. My main term project was the complete re-design of a fender press fixture for intermodal railcar production. Using tools like FEA, my new fixture design reduced stresses on critical components well below allowable limits and can accommodate several types of railcars without major modification. ### Manufacturing Engineer (Mechanical Engineering) @ Linamar Corporation Jan 2018 – Jan 2018 | Guelph, ON I was part of the engineering team that launched the SoftWheel shock-absorbing wheel production line. I designed assembly fixtures and processes that helped achieve a 50% reduction in production time during the transition from prototype production to low-volume production. ### Mechanical Designer (Product Designer) @ Tigercat Industries Jan 2018 – Jan 2018 | Paris, ON At Tigercat, I implemented continuous updates and improvements to existing heavy forestry machinery designs. My major term project was the redesign of the stationary log loader subframe to allow for several inches of additional operational clearance at full leg extension while maintaining existing transport dimensions. I also designed and detailed a DEF tank cover transfer skid to improve shipping quantities and product quality upon delivery compared to existing methods. ## Education ### Bachelor of Applied Science - BASc in Mechanical Engineering University of Waterloo ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/justin-min --- Source: https://flows.cv/justinmin JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/justinmin/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-13
