Cofounder and CTOArch SystemsAug 2015 - Current (10 years 10 months)Arch works with top-tier global manufacturers to extract data from any machine and drive uniform metrics for enhanced productivity and predictive analytics. We focus on the electronics manufacturing supply chains, digitizing both greenfield and brownfield factories. Using the Arch Utilization Suite, manufacturers are achieving real, state-of-the-art 20-40% machine utilization improvements. Arch provides one of the largest surface mount technology (SMT) machine connector libraries in the world and has partnerships with the leading PCB manufacturing machine vendors. We are deployed on 5 continents and connected to thousands of machines inside the facilities of 4 of the world's top 10 electronics manufacturers. Arch began by monitoring wells i- Graduate Research FellowStanford UniversitySep 2011 - May 2015 (3 years 9 months)I constructed the first complete theory of how plastic-based organic solar cells work, linking the power conversion efficiency of the technology directly back to material properties like charge carrier mobility and energy levels. My work was published in prestigious academic journals and presented many times at large international conferences.
- Peace Corps VolunteerPeace CorpsJan 2008 - Jun 2011 (3 years 6 months)With funding from the United Nations Development Program's Small Grants Program, I was the technical adviser and design engineer for Panama's first community built and managed pico-hydroelectric power system used for rural electrification. The project, which I oversaw from conception through commissioning, was recognized internationally at the 2012 Economic Summit of the Americas in Montreal as an exceptional example of sustainable development and served as a model for a broader rural electrification scale-up undertaken by the Panama Canal Authority and UNDP.
