At Agency Robotics, we are on a mission to optimize the movement of goods and make supply chains more friendly to humans. By working backwards from customer problems and leveraging decades of experience with robotic automation, we design systems that solve immediate pain points and enable the future of parcel delivery. Personally, I come with a deep technical background (BS & MS Mechanical Eng), an ability to think strategically (MBA), and a love of complex challenges. Early in my career, I helped launch and scale many of the first goods-to-person robotic fulfillment centers at Kiva Systems, leading to a $775m acquisition by Amazon (Kiva was later rebranded to Amazon Robotics). More recently, I led multiple strategic, technical, and operational functions at nuTonomy as we grew from 50 to over 1,500 employees, deployed 100’s of autonomous vehicles in the US and Asia, and formed a $4b joint venture with Hyundai (nuTonomy was later rebranded as Motional). I love taking robots from early demos to commercial scale. If you are working on something exciting or just want to chat about robots or logistics, please reach out.
