Managed the development and introduction of new stationary energy storage and high voltage battery products and systems into the existing operational environment as Tesla continued to expand across new product lines and geographies. Led cross-functional teams to ensure engineering, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain validation targets have been met in accordance with product launch timelines. I was personally responsible for critical pre-production build management, product validation, factory readiness, SIOP, product life-cycle management, and successful tactical implementation of the program into production. Accomplishments include launching two generations of Tesla Energy products and three production facilities to enable 30x growth in manufacturing throughput and program sales over a three year period.At Tesla, I had the opportunity to appreciate how a compelling and honest company mission can translate into exceptional talent acquisition, which, in turn, can deliver results that previously seemed impossible.
