Colleagues describe him as "I met Dave when he worked with HP in the late 80's. I worked for a CM as an engineer and worked directly with Dave to provide new product for HP. His attention to detail and time to market were far above any other engineer I had ever worked with. In the 90's Dave came to work at the same company I was employed with. Dave came in as my Director and had vision, always thought outside of the box and continually looking at cost effective ways to exceed requirements both internally and externally. Dave was an excellent mentor and engineer and I would highly recommend his services. You can rely on his knowledge and direction to achieve the desired goals and time lines.", "DT Engineering Associates provided professional engineering design services and critical vibration and thermal mechanical engineering expertise to our company for 3 years, and was a major factor in the realization of Aspectrics R&D 100 Award winning encoded-photometric infrared analyzer. DT Engineering Associates were contracted to assist my analytical instrument start-up company make the transition from prototype to product. The opto-mechanical prototype was in two ugly sheet metal boxes and had an audible vibrational resonance that degraded spectral resolution and prevented operation at the target scan rate. Mr. Tostenson diagnosed the root cause of the vibration and developed an effective solution that preserved our cost target and kept the product development effort on schedule. DT Engineering Associates designed a sleek enclosure with an integrated thermal management solution for our electronics that enabled Aspectrics to reduce the instrument volume by a factor of five. DT Engineering Associates transformed our bench-top prototype into a finished product. I highly recommend their services for other opto-mechanical instrument developers. Thomas W. Hagler, Founder & CTO Aspectrics, Inc.", and "It was a great pleasure to have Dave as our consultant. He delivered the best possible technical assistance for our medical device projects, which has involved both mechanical and electronic engineering. He provided support on the research and development of projects as well as contributing pertinent ideas for the design of better and more cost effective products. With Dave’s valuable suggestions, we were able to achieve our goals and beat our time line. In addition, we always appreciated his timely response in providing answers to our questions and great data reports that were compatible with our company system."
