Troy Macik
@troymacik
Aspiring mechanical engineer with hands-on technical and leadership experience.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Integrated Business and Engineering student focused on Mechanical Engineering and Management, building a strong foundation through coursework in statics, strength of materials, and material science engineering. I like turning structured problem-solving into practical results—especially when I can learn fast and iterate.
In my recent role as a skilled laborer, I worked on construction and demolition, weatherproofing, and hands-on installation of security systems and Wi‑Fi network hardware. I operated heavy equipment and strengthened both manual and technical skills while staying safety-focused in real-world conditions.
I’ve also developed strong people skills in service environments, moving from dishwasher to server/bartender. I learned to manage stressful moments, communicate clearly with multiple parties, and deliver consistent customer service, backed by SERVE SAFE certification.
As a lifeguard, I trained to respond decisively in high-stress medical and aquatic situations, with CPR and emergency oxygen delivery training. Outside of work, I’m an Eagle Scout who guided the design and construction of a baseball bullpen at my high school—building leadership through planning, teamwork, and follow-through.
