A decade of work across AI, robotics, hardware, and the occasional side hustle. Most of these shipped to real customers; a few are still in the wild.
Leading edge AI, sensor fusion, and computer vision for Instacart's AI-powered shopping cart, deployed across the US, Australia, and Europe. Building the ML infrastructure and multimodal fusion models that help the cart understand what's in it — with work showcased at NVIDIA GTC.
Scaled OGRP from prototype to a robotic picking system in full production. Led the product roadmap through major speed and cost improvements that unlocked the platform's unit economics — partnering with hardware and software engineering to coordinate delivery across business units.
Natural winery producing low-intervention, no-additive wines from North America's indigenous hybrid grapes. 3 vintages and 8 cuvées under our belts, poured at numerous restaurants around Ontario and featured in collaborations with large brands. Built on weekends with friends and family.
Led hardware and software development for ecobee's entry into home security — from concept through manufacturing scale. Shipped a voice-controlled camera with privacy-first defaults, managing vendors across Canada, Taiwan, China, and Malaysia.
Built the business case through competitive analysis and user research, shaping the smart-doorbell product that ecobee ultimately shipped. Defined the hardware platform and software experience for a category ecobee hadn't played in before.
Drove SmartSensor (and its doors-and-windows variant) from DVT through mass production at high volume. Launched to strong ratings across major retailers. Owned the end-to-end product line — hardware, firmware, app experience — for a cornerstone of the ecobee ecosystem.
Turned university research into a commercially viable LiDAR + SLAM product for the mining sector. Graduated HAX (Shenzhen), the top hardware accelerator, and ran pilots with early-adopter mining customers.
