Hao Jiang
Sichuan worked in my department of product development at Flexiv as a mechatronics engineer focusing on a series of sensor and actuator hardware projects. He has made significant contributions to robotic force torque sensing, position sensing, and integrated actuation optimizations, which are the key technologies of our robotic products. Thanks to his persistent investigations, we have uncovered the root cause of some of the most difficult issues related to our encoder systems, and his ground-breaking solutions helped us with consistent business growth. Meanwhile, he has also co-led the firmware design and implementation of our industrial force-controlled gripper systems. His independent product development and problem-solving skills have helped us resolve numerous technical difficulties. His capabilities and background knowledge are among the very top talents I've come across in several years. In addition to his outstanding achievements, Sichuan is diligent, humble, professional, optimistic, and always passionate about upcoming challenges. It has been a great journey working with Sichuan, and we are very thankful for the contribution he has made at Flexiv.
