Meet Case Kamminga
Case Kamminga joins Hyperion Automation as a mechanical engineer. In this hands-on role, he will design custom automation equipment while providing day-to-day technical leadership to the mechanical engineering team. He brings over a decade of industry experience to Hyperion and holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering and a master’s degree in business administration from Michigan Technological University.
A West Michigan native, Case began his career in 2015 with a mechanical engineering internship at B&B Design in Grand Haven, where he discovered his passion for problem-solving and mechanical design. He went on to intern in manufacturing and automation engineering at Pieper Automation, designing material-handling systems and supporting assembly work.
While pursuing his bachelor’s degree, he also completed a mechanical engineering and project management internship at Amway, where he created layouts for a semi-automated manufacturing facility and deepened his technical knowledge.
Most recently, he was a manufacturing engineer at Gentex Corp., where he started as a mechanical engineering intern and advanced over four years. In that role, he led key processes, designed conveyor and palletization systems and became the team’s go-to expert in SolidWorks and machine design.
Case enjoys solving problems by creating new solutions. It’s why machine design, especially small machines, has always been his favorite part of engineering. In his new role, he will guide the team through decisions that keep projects on track, overseeing each build from the initial concept to the final installation.
Outside of work, Case enjoys fixing up cars, volunteering through his church and spending time with his wife and dog.
