Summary
Jake Garza is a Technical Solutions Engineer with a mechanical engineering background and eight years of hands-on experience applying software and automation to improve manufacturing and research workflows. He pairs practical skills in VBA, MATLAB, and Python with CAD/CAM and CNC expertise from roles at Auburn's RFID Lab and ICAMS, where he designed fixtures, generated CAM programs, and machined parts. Jake has led interdisciplinary projects—most notably developing medical equipment in a senior design sponsor collaboration—and improved sensing and mapping accuracy by designing a 3D-printed mount for an Okapi RFID reader. Comfortable bridging hardware and software, he also holds a mechatronics certificate with PLC and robot programming experience, and brings a track record of turning prototype concepts into manufacturable solutions. Now based in Verona, WI, he’s building on this hybrid skill set at Epic to deliver technical solutions that streamline complex systems.
