Hi, I'm Mahammad.

I’m a student from Baku passionate about mechanical engineering, education , and human-centered design. From leading my FRC robotics team to building Therapeutic art installations and creating Classlab, my goal is to use engineering to solve real-world problems with measurable impact. While im not building stuff, im probably listening to hip-hop with my 3 cats Marsi, Sophie and Felix.

Marsi

Loves to eat.

Sophie

Scared of everything, fears nothing.

Felix

Masterfully sleeps in uncomfortable positions.

Here are some of my activities

FRC ROBOTICS-Captain of Mechanics & Safety

Before re-design

After re-design

As Captain and Mechanical Lead of FRC Mechack Team #9030, I led the mechanical design and optimization of our competition robot. I redesigned the intake system with aluminum supports to replace failing polycarbonate, improving reliability under stress. I coordinated fabrication with other teams at the San Diego Regional, diagnosing structural issues in real time. Beyond engineering, I mentored new members, created troubleshooting guides, and helped establish a collaborative, safety-first team culture that helped the team get a better result in the following competitive year.

Here is my certificate

Classlab (EdTech Platform) Founder & Developer

As Founder and Lead Designer of Classlab, I built a classroom Q&A and analytics platform used by more than 500 students. I developed the prototype on Replit, integrating real-time response tracking and a teacher dashboard that visualized student engagement patterns. I conducted interviews with teachers, translated feedback into feature iterations, and deployed updates weekly during pilot testing. Beyond engineering, I shaped the product direction, presented Classlab as a finalist in The Pitch Baku, and built verification tools that helped teachers identify struggling students—turning a simple idea into a functioning educational system with measurable impact.I also luckily got a recommendation letter for my efforts!

National Aviation Academy Robotics Intern

At the National Aviation Academy of Azerbaijan, I worked in the Robotics Laboratory on walking robot prototypes and competition systems alongside university students and research engineers. I helped assemble and program quadruped and multi-legged robots, using servo-driven joints and basic sensor feedback to improve stability during field tests. In parallel, I contributed to the Academy’s preparation for the 2026 FTC competition by supporting the redesign of the robot’s climbing and scissor-lift mechanism (images on the left). I assisted with motor alignment, tested motion under load, and added small refinements—like tension supports—that made vertical travel smoother and more reliable. Working across both prototype robotics and an active competition build taught me how fast-paced engineering teams diagnose problems, iterate designs, and prepare machines for real-world performance.

Here is my letter of verification

Therapeutic Art Installation for Children

I volunteered in a therapeutic workshop for children with Down syndrome and Autism, where I helped design sensory activities and later built a small mechanical toy to support fine-motor engagement. The toy used simple pulley motion and soft materials to provide calming tactile stimulation, and I adapted it based on each child’s needs. Working directly with Enes and Adil, I created number-based games to help maintain focus and collaborated with a small team to keep every child meaningfully involved. The experience showed me how empathy and engineering can work together, and it strengthened my leadership as I guided younger volunteers and supported the therapists throughout the session.I prototyped the motion using a lightweight pulley system and soft, high-contrast materials that children could safely pull, push, and rotate. Each iteration came from observing which textures held their attention and which movements were calming versus overstimulating. Here is my certificate

My (unorthodox) research projects

This 12+ page research study builds a calculus-based framework for analyzing the rhythmic complexity of modern rap. Using JID’s “Off Deez” as a primary dataset, the paper applies derivatives, integrals, statistical modeling, and syllabic-density mapping to measure how professional rappers structure flow patterns with mathematical precision.

Here's the paper

This project develops a scientific metaphor for motivation by mapping thermodynamic principles onto human cognitive behavior. Using concepts such as entropy, Gibbs free energy, reaction spontaneity, and activation energy, the paper explains why the mind naturally drifts toward disorder and why structured discipline requires deliberate energy expenditure.

Ishiq project volunteer

Volunteered weekly for 6 months teaching English to students starting with no prior proficiency, helping them reach A2 level. Used a “concept deconstruction” method to break down grammar and vocabulary into simple, intuitive steps for vulnerable learners. Provided one-on-one mentorship to build confidence, improve communication skills, and support personal development. Awarded Teacher with Distinction for consistent impact and student progress.

Instructional design intern

Completed a 100-hour Product Development internship focused on improving the ASPIRE Learning Management System. Worked with the product team on data architecture, user-interface improvements, and the design of a student-performance analytics dashboard. Contributed to curriculum design for the Grade 9 English Preparatory Course, created lesson sequences and assessment frameworks, and produced instructional videos for 40+ teachers. Modules developed during the internship will be deployed across partner schools serving 7,000+ students.

Here is letter i recieved from them

Red Crescent volunteer

Volunteered with the Azerbaijan Red Crescent Society, supporting humanitarian aid, first-aid awareness campaigns, mental health training, and emergency response initiatives. Assisted in distributing essential supplies to over 1,500 beneficiaries and helped train 700+ individuals in first aid and hygiene practices. Completed full MHPSS (mental health and psychosocial support) training and provided guidance to 200+ people in post-conflict contexts. Led workshops for 400+ students on safety and health education and contributed to a 35% increase in youth engagement in community health programs.

The end!(Thanks for reading)
