Engineering services that turn complex ideas into systems that work
20+ years leading complex hardware, IoT, and sensing programs across defense, industrial, and commercial markets
Small and mid-sized businesses can’t afford engineering failures:
Every growing company eventually hits the same wall: products get harder, risks grow, and engineering decisions carry greater consequences. Small and mid-sized businesses rarely have the senior technical leadership needed to guide those decisions — and that gap leads to stalled roadmaps, unreliable hardware, missed requirements, and blown budgets.
I step in where things get complicated, providing the high-level engineering leadership, clarity, and cross-disciplinary expertise that most SMBs simply don’t have in-house.
I help organizations that are facing challenges like:
Hardware that won’t scale or perform consistently
Roadmaps slipping because no one owns technical decisions
Software and hardware teams not speaking the same language
Vendors missing deadlines or delivering poor-quality builds
Proposals that aren’t competitive or fundable
Talented teams but lack direction
Prototype-to-production gaps that threaten customer timelines
Small and mid-sized businesses deserve access to the same engineering leadership, clarity, and execution that large organizations rely on, without the overhead of hiring a full-time VP.
What I Do
Hardware, IoT & Systems Development
I design and integrate real-world hardware, sensors, and connected systems, taking ideas from initial concepts to field-ready prototypes and production plans. I connect software and hardware effectively.
VP Technical Leadership and Execution
Senior-level engineering leadership—roadmaps, architecture, budgeting, staffing, and cross-functional alignment that keeps your business on track.
Vendor, manufacturing, and proposals
I help you choose and manage vendors, build tariff aware supply chains, and create clear, fundable proposals for commercial and government work.
What Makes My Approach Different
I bring a unique mix of R&D depth, manufacturing experience, and executive leadership that is rare in one person. I have led multi-million dollar programs, built and scaled engineering teams, and worked in both defense and commercial environments. My focus is always the same: clear plans, honest communication, and systems that actually work in the field.
I bridge hardware, software, and systems so your teams stop working in silos.
I translate technical complexity into clear business decisions.
I combine R&D flexibility with manufacturing discipline.
I act as a fractional VP of Engineering, not a task-runner.
I build the structure and processes your team needs to move faster.
I work directly with vendors to eliminate friction and schedule risk.
How I work
-
We work closely with your team to understand your product goals, constraints, risks, and business objectives. You get a clear view of what’s working, what’s not, and where engineering is blocking growth.
-
I map out a practical engineering strategy, roadmap, and decision framework that aligns with your budget, timeline, and ROI expectations. This ensures your team isn't building blindly or reacting to problems too late.
-
I partner with your hardware, software, operations, and vendor teams to keep execution aligned and moving. This eliminates miscommunication, reduces risk, and ensures the right decisions happen at the right time.
-
You receive clean documentation, processes, decisions, and handoff material so your team can continue building with clarity and confidence — with ongoing support available as needed.
