    • Product and Service Manager
      • 2007 - 2009

      Integral member of the Product and Service Management team. Managed three 3rd-party integration products – their development and delivery: executed product roll-out to existing and new clients. Engaged with partners and clients at business, technical, and troubleshooting levels. Engineering and client specification collection; drafting and documentation, and executive sign-off - for internal and client-facing projects. Conducted and organized phone platform and feature testing. Conducted extensive product (software) testing: back-end data verification and front-end UI analysis. Owner of issue triage for these products and intimately familiar with the capabilities of each. • Established beta-tester relationships with existing clients for product trials. • Conducted regular departmental trainings for upcoming products and new releases – was the go-to point for many individuals on multiple product features. • Contributed towards company's MRR by assessing clients' needs and signing a dozen up for additional products and services during a beta period. • Mentored several interns teaching them of the workplace, new technologies, public speaking.

    • Research Engineer - Advanced Image Processing
      • 2006 - 2007

      Designed and developed a prototype system to measure large flat-screen display quality using Fourier imaging techniques and commercial-level photographic technologies. Developed and managed timelines and personnel for collaborative work. Understanding of optics and image-processing theory, tools and techniques. Full ownership of budget, timeline and reporting for project. End-of-year reports, operations manuals, Bill of Materials and requirement reports for deliverable. Selection and sourcing of appropriate hardware for fitting out new labs. • New darkrooms established on time, within budget with the appropriate hardware in place. • Contributed to a proprietary image-processing software library. • Established relationships with contractors and local workshops – previously lacking. • Prototype delivered on time to Canon Japan Dec ‘06, manufacturing QA demonstration in March ‘07.

    • Research Engineer - Optical Waveguides for Optoelectronic/Telco Products
      • 2002 - 2006

      Process development and optimization for optical waveguide fabrication. An integral member of the technical team responsible for developing the first optical-based touch-screen system suitable for handheld or large displays. Prototype assembly and test. Optical testing, characterization and feedback. Optical device design, test and feedback; photo-mask design, layout and optimization. Knowledge and understanding of usage and maintenance of semi-conductor tools. Operation of a Class 100 cleanroom for photonic device fabrication; large quantities of process optimization using control systems, data logging, and optimization for HVAC. Contractor administration and interaction, establishing technical and contractual requirements. Patent review and prior art searches. Environmental testing of unpackaged and packaged samples. Supervised interns, and collaborated with undergraduate class lectures and tours. Building fire warden. • Many years of semiconductor process optimization – ultimately leading from small-scale one-off prototyping to mass manufacture capabilities. • Thus developing a sound approach to proprietary research with the aim of commercial gain. • Several multi-system operational prototypes demonstrated to investors, customers and manufacturing partners at critical timings. E.g. funding rounds, conferences, partner visits. • Reviewed pilot production capabilities and requirements; inspections of mass-manufacturing equipment – established a pilot plant and took delivery of sensitive equipment.
