Abdullah Mahmood

Hello All! 

I'm Abdullah, a Mechanical Engineering student at Georgia Tech with a minor in Aerospace Engineering. I have a strong interest in mechanical design, robotics, and vehicle systems. I enjoy working at the intersection of theory and hands-on engineering, taking ideas from early concepts and turning them into CAD models, prototypes, and integrated systems that function in real world conditions.

I am also a A. James Clark Scholar and an Autodesk Design & Make Ambassador, experiences that have allowed me to engage deeply with engineering leadership, design communication, and technical outreach. I’ve worked on multidisciplinary projects such as Georgia Tech’s EcoCAR EV Challenge, contributing to an Electric Drive Unit integration, subframe and motor mount redesigns, and structural analysis for a 2023 Cadillac LYRIQ, as well as autonomous and mechatronic systems through coursework like ME 2110 and ME1670. Across these experiences, I focus on systems level thinking, manufacturable design, and validating performance through analysis and iteration.

Outside of coursework, I spend a lot of time in CAD primarily in Fusion 360, SolidWorks, and Siemens NX and enjoy building and refining mechanical systems through prototyping and testing. I’m particularly interested in opportunities that combine mechanical design, system integration, and problem solving in automotive, aerospace, robotics, or advanced manufacturing environments.
