Feb 2015 - Jul 2020
• Key engineer for the flagship Body Cardio development, delivered hardware and software for the measurement of Pulsed Wave Velocity (related to blood pressure) for the first time on a body scale• Designed whole electronics for the Withings sleep sensor, rated best sleep tracker, improved SNR by 10x vs. previous version, allowing new measurements such as sleep apnea and breathing disturbances• Broad contributions in sensor integration (IMU, optical, MEMs, ...), analog electronics (ECG for the ScanWatch and Move ECG), actuator driving (motors for the Activité hands), power tree (battery life analysis), embedded firmware (digital signal processing for bioimpedance on the Body +)• Defined test procedures and implemented them on the assembly line at Chinese subcontractor factories, dealt with unforeseen issues (missing parts, software bugs, SMT problems) to finish assembly within schedule Show less
