I help technology companies turn hard engineering into shipped products.

I came in to write firmware and built a body-controls team of 12 full-time engineers — backed by 8 regular interns — with zero attrition, without ever stepping away from the code. That team delivered 14 ECUs for Model X, the Model S gateway and the foundations of Tesla's over-the-air updates, a ground-breaking BLE key fob, and cost-down designs for Model 3, then ramped Model S and Model X through the production line. When the Model S door handle had to be reinvented — hardware and software — just six weeks before start of production, we rebuilt it from scratch and still hit the date.

NIO was a bet — a brand-new EV company with global ambition and almost nothing built yet. I built and led a 90-engineer digital-systems organization from the ground up across San Jose, Shanghai, and Munich, and helped recruit six VPs — former colleagues — to lead other organizations across the company. I designed four vehicle platforms plus the safety-critical, connected-vehicle architecture behind them, including the record-setting EP9 electric hypercar. I set NIO's software-defined-vehicle vision years ahead of most OEMs, generated four US patents, and delivered the digital backbone that helped carry the company to its NYSE IPO.

Samsung handed me a hard mandate: take on Mobileye. I directed a 30-engineer organization architecting Samsung's automotive compute and computer-vision stack — silicon, middleware, and AI designed as one system — for next-generation ADAS and autonomous driving. The edge wasn't any single layer; it was making the whole stack, from chip to perception, move together. That kind of cross-domain bet is exactly where I do my best work.

At Weavix I lead engineering across six domains at once — embedded, Android, cloud, AI, data, and hardware — and drove the bring-up and rollout of an infrastructure-free mesh smart radio: a device that keeps frontline teams connected where there is no network to rely on. It's the kind of problem I look for — ambitious, undefined, and only solvable by making many disciplines work as one. And I'm still close enough to the architecture to know it works.
