Bio
Jamie Luong
Sagar has my utmost respect as an exceptional mechatronics engineer that is highly driven to get things done. In addition to his technical expertise, he has demonstrated qualities of emotional intelligence that has made him a great leader and mentor during my time working with him both as a teammate and as my manager. He is humble, caring, and always willing to help his team members by providing clarity and removing blockers to achieve our project goals. I have no doubt that he will continue to lead by example and positively impact his teams throughout his career to deliver amazing products.
Thas Yuwaraj Ph.D, P.Eng.
Sagar is truly a 'get things done' person. He quickly became the subject matter expert on every project he worked on and then became the knowledge bridge between R&D and manufacturing. It takes an empathetic designer to carry this torch and he did it very well. His calm demeanor through tough times in his projects immensely helped create a positive vibe around him. It has been a pleasure interacting with Sagar, both at technical and non-technical levels.
