What I Build

Force-torque sensors adopted by global robotics teams. The world's first commercial focal molography instrument. Cable-driven robots. Autonomous earthmoving machinery. Eight years of shipping electro-mechanical systems under real production constraints, from architecture through manufacturing release.

System Integration

Multi-domain instruments combining optics, mechanics, fluidics, and firmware.

Electro-mechanical

Sensor Design

6-axis force-torque sensors, strain gauges, signal conditioning, and calibration.

F/T Sensors

Product Realization

Sketch to series production. DFM, tooling, CE compliance, manufacturing release.

End-to-end

Sim-to-Real

FEA-to-test calibration that closes the gap between simulation and hardware.

Validated models

Biotech Instruments

Micro-fluidics, biosensors, and IVD platforms from concept to market.

Life sciences

Embedded & Control

EtherCAT, CAN, real-time firmware, and motion control architectures.

Real-time

Robotics

Cable-driven parallel robots, teleoperation, autonomous earthmoving machines.

Field robotics

Rapid Execution

Concept to field test in 6 months. Two instruments to market in 12.

Fast delivery

If it can’t survive a production transfer, the design isn’t done.

Transfer-ready design

Every system starts with the manufacturing transfer in mind. Tolerances, test procedures, supplier constraints. Elegance that can’t be built at scale is just a sketch.

Boring metrics

Yield rate. Mean time between failures. Assembly hours per unit. When those numbers are right, the product ships — and stays shipped.

Own the full stack

Mechanics, electronics, firmware, software, supply chain. Real systems fail at interfaces. I work across all of them.
