Mechanical Architecture for Consumer electronics

Prototyping

Proof of Concept

NTI/NPI

DFM/DFA

Concept Design team focused on early stage prototyping. Development vehicles, proof of concept, and NTI's. Projects and work spanned across all product verticals: Oculus (VR), Smart Glasses (Ray Ban Stories), Augmented Reality and Portal. Team was later re-org'd to focus on VR only. Successfully sourced and staffed a direct team that started with 1 up to 7 reports. Day to day duties include: mentoring/leading junior to mid-level experience engineers, project staffing, leading design reviews, project scoping, collaborating with XFN's, and road mapping projects/schedules.

Designing, building and testing early stage hardware for consumer electronics. Extensive work done on Portal, Oculus and AR applications. Some of the big projects include:

• First looks like/works like Portal TV prototype

• Design development for key features on the Portal TV

• Hall effect sensor integration for Quest 2

• Light block eye ring accessory for Quest

• Various sensors integration for AR applications

Came to Facebook through the Nascent Objects acquisition. Integrated the Nascent objects technology and enabled Facebook's first ever Hardware Hackathon. 30 software teams were able to design, build and demo working hardware hacks on form factor correct custom hardware.

After the project was shelved we worked on projected AR experiences.
