Jason Funk

Chemical Engineering student graduating December 2026 with hands-on experience in medical device cleanroom quality, manufacturing engineering, process design, and project leadership. FE Chemical passed; EIT application submitted. I’m targeting new grad roles in process, manufacturing, quality, or environmental engineering, with interest in semiconductor and biomedical sectors.

Based in Ontario, CA and open to Southern California. US citizen, eligible to obtain a security clearance. If you’re hiring for new grad engineers in these areas, I’d be glad to connect.
