Jacob A. Pomerantz

Mechanical engineering major at Northwestern University. Concetration in manufacturing and design.


As a current junior scheduled to graduate with a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in the spring of 2026, I have developed a strong practical foundation in mechanical design and manufacturing. I have contributed meaningfully to diverse projects including the design and construction of electric vehicle elements on Northwestern’s Formula team, the production of an autonomous medical implant machine, and the development of a sampling mechanism to aid in combustion experiments related to sustainable aviation fuels. My experiences have also spanned varied environments - collaborating with professors on an independent manufacturing project, assisting fellow students in their use of complex machinery as a trainer in the university’s manufacturing shop, and performing research at Argonne National Laboratory as a summer intern. I am results-oriented, creative, and driven to make a lasting impact as an engineer.

This next summer, I am looking for internships at dynamic companies where I can make innovative contributions and continue my professional growth through positive mentorship.
