    Meet Sophie Palmer (and Otis), Mechanical Design Engineer at Proterra! Tell us about you background and where did you grow up? I was born and spent a significant part of my childhood in Germany, before moving outside of Boston where my mom's family is from. I studied mechanical engineering (modified with studio art!) at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH where I quickly learned how much I love the challenge of building technical skills while also taking courses in studio art and the liberal arts. This mix of humanities to understand the global needs of our generation and technical problem solving felt like a really great foundation moving into my first job! What do you enjoy most about your role at Proterra? Ever since I started at Proterra, I've felt extremely grateful for the freedom and responsibility my team gives me. As a mechanical design engineer, I get to make a tangible impact on not only our product, but also the clean transportation industry. What motivated you to join the clean transportation industry? I originally joined Proterra as an avid public transportation fan. Growing up in Germany, I learned to use public transit over car travel and as an adult learned to appreciate its power to reduce pollution. Electrification of public transit and the heavy duty industry is another critical step towards reducing the damage of today's climate crisis.
