Product Design Engineering | Product Development | Manufacturing
I'm a product design engineer with a wealth of experience and hundreds of thousands of units of my designs in circulation. I don't just provide renders; I develop manufacturable systems and products with a deep consideration of unit economics, the assembly process, and any potential issues that need to be addressed before money has been spent at the factory. I can help you in ideation, 3D development, prototyping, small production runs, and mass-scale manufacturing. I'm deeply connected in the global manufacturing ecosystem with annual trips to China on QC/QA, and assembly training, and I have an extensive list of personally vetted factories across a wide range of manufacturing processes, from injection moulding to electronic systems to dedicated assembly lines. If prototyping is required, I have a dedicated lab in London, with CNC machines, laser cutters, laser welders, 3D printers, tensile testing equipment, and a range of manual machinery. I can build functional prototypes or aesthetic prototypes for marketing material or beta user testing. A quick breakdown: * R&D lab in London for prototyping and small-scale production * Design engineering / mechanical engineering / electrical engineering * Can take your idea from concept to full-scale manufacturing * Experience in marketing and launching products under my own and clients' brands * Deep knowledge of materials and processes. Including sustainability and material costings Effectively, I'm a turnkey solution for your product development and it will be a pleasure to make your dream a reality!
