Supported founders developing hardware-focused startups from concept through prototype.
Technical program manager for Chromecast v2 hardware. Helped the team solve product design issues in proto and got them on-track for progression through engineering (EVT), design (DVT), and production (PVT) validation and test builds.
Built and led the TPM team to enable and accelerate Google's efforts in robotics (aka Replicant). Given the start-up like environment, my duties spanned the gamut when it came to managing our robotics-related hardware engineering programs — including enabling technologies like 3D time-of-flight (ToF) FMCW LiDAR sensors, optics, VCSEL-based illumination, high-speed global shutter CMOS RGB sensors, and FPGA SoC compute modules.
Technical program manager on Android for various OS and app related efforts. Later, I ran Nexus device programs such as Nexus 10, Nexus 9, and other explorations that never left the lab. I also ran several smaller efforts around the official accessories that accompanied Nexus devices.
