Fluidics Engineering Intern @ 10X Genomics **Profession:** MSME \(AI/ML\) @ USC | UIUC BSME Alum | Prev. Fluidics Engineering Intern @ 10X Genomics **Location:** Fremont, California, United States ## About Jedd’s background combines mechanical engineering, computer science, business, product development, web development, virtual-reality content creation, and engineering research. Jedd is strongest in design, CAD, prototyping, 3D printing, engineering analysis, and translating technical work into practical products and processes. Jedd earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, with minors in Computer Science and Business. In an engineering internship at Carts Depot, Jedd helped convert lead-acid golf carts to lithium-ion systems, improving energy efficiency by approximately 25% and reducing overall weight by approximately 35%. Jedd also standardized electrical installation procedures, reducing setup time by approximately 30% across multiple cart models. Additional experience includes fluidics engineering at 10x Genomics, web development at Tipalti, virtual lesson-environment creation in Unreal Engine at ScintillaVR, renewable-energy research at Polygence, and ergonomic-keyboard research and design through ASDRP. ## Services - Finite Element Analysis \(FEA\) - Design - Engineering - Research - Autodesk Fusion 360 - 3D Printing - Project Management - Computer-Aided Design \(CAD\) - Unreal Engine - Machining - Engineering Drawings - Autodesk Inventor ## Highlights - Converted lead-acid golf carts to lithium-ion systems at Carts Depot, improving energy efficiency by approximately 25% and reducing overall weight by approximately 35%. - Standardized electrical installation procedures at Carts Depot, cutting setup time by approximately 30% across multiple cart models. - Interpreted battery specifications, installation guides, and wiring diagrams at Carts Depot. - Migrated websites to new hosting environments at Tipalti while ensuring minimal downtime and full functionality after migration. - Managed data transfers, DNS updates, and URL redirects at Tipalti to maintain SEO rankings. - Collaborated with cross-functional teams at Tipalti to troubleshoot and resolve website-migration issues and support platform transitions without data loss. - Planned and created 3D virtual lesson environments in Unreal Engine for high school courses at ScintillaVR. - Designed, prototyped, and marketed a laser-cut product for organizing clean and dirty masks at PilotCity. - Researched multiple wind-turbine models at Polygence to develop potential universally usable designs for more accessible renewable-energy use. - Researched keyboard history and innovations through ASDRP, then designed and 3D printed an ergonomic keyboard using Autodesk Inventor. - Served as a Fluidics Engineering Intern at 10x Genomics. - Earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, with minors in Computer Science and Business. ## Experience - **Fluidics Engineering Intern at 10x Genomics** (2026-05-01–2026-08-01) - **Engineering Intern at Carts Depot** (2025-06-01–2025-08-01) — Converted lead-acid golf carts to lithium-ion systems, improving energy efficiency by ~25% and reducing overall weight by ~35% Standardized electrical install procedures, cutting setup time by ~ 30% across multiple cart models Interpreted battery specifications, install guides and wiring diagrams - **Web Development Intern at Tipalti** (2024-05-01–2024-07-01) - **Web Development Intern at Tipalti** (2023-06-01–2023-10-01) — Successfully migrated websites to new hosting environments, ensuring minimal downtime and full functionality post-migration.
