episode How Formula SAE Helped Joshua Kim Build an Engineering Career cover

How Formula SAE Helped Joshua Kim Build an Engineering Career

How does a Formula SAE student go from building aero packages and carbon fiber layups to becoming Chief of Staff at a semiconductor startup? On this episode of Beyond the Competition, hosts Mike and Scott talk with Joshua Kim about his journey from the University of Illinois Formula SAE EV team to leadership at Synergy Research Labs. Joshua shares how hands-on experience in Formula SAE taught him critical engineering and manufacturing skills that couldn’t be learned in the classroom alone. From CNC machining and composites manufacturing to presenting ideas in design reviews and solving high-pressure engineering problems, Joshua explains how Formula shaped both his technical abilities and his confidence as an engineer. The conversation also dives into: Why many Formula SAE programs are consolidating into EV teams The value of learning design for manufacturability and serviceability How Formula SAE prepares students for internships and careers The importance of asking questions and staying humble as an engineer Why hands-on experience matters in engineering education Joshua’s memorable moments from competition at Michigan Advice for current Formula SAE students looking to maximize their experience Joshua also discusses Synergy Research Labs’ work developing gallium oxide semiconductor materials and why the company is recruiting directly from Formula SAE programs. Whether you’re a current SAE student, alumni, or engineering professional, this episode is packed with insight on how student competition programs translate directly into real-world engineering careers.

From Parts to Podiums: Oshkut’s Role in Baja SAE This Year

In this episode of Beyond the Competition, Mike and Scott welcome Caleb Chamberlain, CEO and co-founder of Oshkut, to discuss how on-demand metal fabrication is revolutionizing the way student engineering teams build. Caleb shares the origin of his company—from a challenging VR motion rig project to a rapidly growing fabrication platform—and explains how Oshkut is uniquely designed for high-mix, low-volume manufacturing. This makes it an ideal partner for student teams working on one-off parts and rapid prototypes. The conversation dives into how Oshkut supports hundreds of university teams, including those competing in Formula SAE and Baja SAE, offering discounted services and tools that make advanced manufacturing more accessible than ever. Listeners will also gain practical advice on designing for sheet metal, avoiding common CAD mistakes, optimizing lead times, and leveraging modern fabrication workflows to accelerate development cycles. If you're a student engineer, team member, or educator looking to push your build further—this episode is a must-listen.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
