SharkNinja
Helped develop the released Shark StainForce HX101, working on the caddy, impeller and physical user experience.
Jack HansenMechanical engineer
I build simulations, control systems and physical products. At TU Delft, I am focusing on mobility, public transportation and the engineering behind how people move.
Selected work
01
Dynamic congestion pricing for Dublin
Python agent-based model testing how emissions-responsive tolls alter exposure, routing and cost across Dublin
02
Shark StainForce portable cleaner
Product-development work spanning the Grab & Go Caddy, impeller and physical user experience
03
Active wind blade stabilization
A PID-controlled lifting spreader that steadies a suspended 70-ton offshore blade
04
EcoTrim human-powered string trimmer
A hand-cranked capstone prototype built around a three-stage gearbox, two-wheel cutting head and full grass testing
05
Electric racing bodywork
I led electric racecar bodywork from SolidWorks surfaces through CNC foam tooling and fibreglass layup
06
Whipper trebuchet
I modelled a three-link launch mechanism in Python, detailed it in SolidWorks and validated it through testing
Background
I am completing an MSc in Multi-Machine Engineering at TU Delft in 2027, after earning a BSc in Mechanical Engineering magna cum laude from Northeastern University in 2025.
Across three engineering co-ops, I designed consumer products at SharkNinja, built manufacturing tools at Boyd and designed advanced materials at Hexcel / ARC Technologies.
Alongside engineering, I have spent years performing and recording on keys with jazz, funk and fusion bands.
Current focus Mobility systems, public transport and transport simulation
Working with Python, MATLAB/Simulink, SolidWorks, Arduino, agent-based modelling, optimization, PID and MPC
Experience
Boyd
Built analysis software, precision fixtures and GD&T drawings for manufacturing.
Hexcel / ARC Technologies
Worked across materials formulation, mechanical testing and production methods.
More work
Rotterdam Metro routing
I developed optimization scripts for the fastest route through every station for a Guinness World Records application. Updates to come.
BrainTrainer
I designed an adaptive game console with people living with Alzheimer's disease and published the work at ASEE.
