• Create and lead design development of tools, gear, and tactical equipment• Utilize sketching/rendering, 3D modeling, prototyping, and user-testing to generate innovative and feasible design concepts.• Collaborate with stakeholders, engineers, and vendors to gather feedback and uphold design integrity and intent.

• Consult clients in innovative design and development of furniture, hardware, and other products. • Utilize sketching/rendering, 3D modeling, prototyping, and testing to generate client feedback, implement concepts, and incorporate project changes. • Establish project scope, budget, design goals, and deadlines. • Research and select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes that align with design goals, functionality, and cost considerations.

• Design concepts of various products, from initial sketching to rapid prototyping, design presentation, packaging, and designs for manufacturing (DFM)and UX research.• Ensure compliance, documentation, and accountability of all Bills of Materials (BOMs) and Conditions of Assembly (COAs) at each buildsite for suppliers, partners, and clients.• Align objectives and bridge communications with clients, design engineering team, supplier management, and other key stakeholders on design andproduction changes, as well as project deadlines.• Oversee project GANTT charts and execution of project tasks.

Worked closely with the design team in collaboration with engineers and clients to develop various designs ranging from medical to consumer products. Responsible for contributing to UX researchand workflow development, sketching, CAD, prototyping, presentation development, client site visit, and DFM.

• Collaborated with Toyota Boshoku Japan and SJSU industrial design, engineering, and occupational therapy teams to invent an autonomousautomotive transportation solution for disabled individuals.• Generated estimated of impact reports with Technical Lead.• Directed the industrial design team’s deliverables, brainstorming sessions, UX research, concept development, CAD, rendering, and design presentations.• Facilitated data collection, research, and data interpretation of engineering diagrams and supplier drawings.

Responsible for concept development, 3D CAD modeling, and collaborate with students to develop their design ideas.
