About Rebecca Sholler
Mechanical engineer and MIT LGO MBA/SM candidate, bringing hard technology from prototype to scale in health and energy.
I'm an engineer who takes complex physical products from early concept to reliable scale. At Coremap, a medical device startup, I engineered a mapping catheter from prototype to trial-ready design, built the quality management system, and led the documentation behind an FDA-approved IDE for its first-in-human trial. Earlier, I worked in distribution engineering at Duke Energy.
Now at MIT as a Leaders for Global Operations Fellow (MBA and SM in Mechanical Engineering, 2027), I'm working on digital strategy at Sanofi and a carbon capture project with PETRONAS. I'm looking for roles in health technology, energy, and clean tech where engineering, quality, and operations meet.
