Joseph Oliveira

Joe has joined SOSV as the Workshop Manager for the HAX Program based in Newark.

Joe holds an undergraduate degree in Industrial Design from NJIT in Newark. Prior to joining SOSV, Joe worked in NJIT’s Makerspace for 3 years while he completed his undergraduate degree. While on staff, Joe latched onto the philosophy of designing for manufacturing. The makerspace allowed Joe to explore different methods of manufacturing and those experiences helped influence the way he sees problems. As an industrial designer, Joe is always looking for new ways to take something from his head and bring it into the world. Joe loves to help people bring their projects to life in the workshop and see their ideas emerge from a pile of chips.

For fun, Joe builds High Power Rockets, over the top birdhouses and mentors his high school robotics team.
