Background

About John Piaskowski

I am a dedicated engineer with a passion for solving complex challenges in vehicle testing, noise and vibration, quality assurance, and autonomous systems. I bring a strong foundation in engineering principles and a proven track record across diverse projects—delivering significant cost savings, driving process improvements, and ensuring a quality product for customers through strategic, data-driven solutions. Currently, I serve as a Cost Engineer, where I oversee a number of cross-functional projects focused on cost optimization, design efficiency, and value engineering. In this role, I’ve led initiatives that have saved my company millions of dollars through detailed cost analysis, supplier collaboration, and process improvements. I’ve also earned professional certification in project work and significantly expanded my understanding of electrical systems, enabling me to bridge technical and financial perspectives to drive impactful results. At Honda, I developed my skills as a Noise, Vibration, and Quality Engineer. I played a key role in optimizing product performance by addressing NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) issues, resolving production concerns, and conducting functional testing to ensure superior quality and customer satisfaction. Previously, as a Test Engineer at Oshkosh Defense, I was responsible for evaluating vehicle systems for functionality, durability, braking, performance, and reliability. I thrived in high-stakes environments that demanded precision, adaptability, and technical rigor, contributing to the development of robust and mission-ready vehicles. Driven by a commitment to excellence and a curiosity for emerging technologies, I continuously seek opportunities to innovate and deliver engineering solutions that make a lasting impact. I look forward to connecting with fellow professionals, collaborating on transformative projects, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in engineering.
