about me
Hi! I'm Thuan, a mechanical engineer with a passion for leading-edge, hardware-related technologies, especially those that have the potential to profoundly shape both the world in which we live and the one in which we will live.
I am a mechanical design / product design engineer with 8 years of experience at Apple, spanning three teams and countless fast-paced, dynamic projects. My core expertise is in developing product concept/vision and making them a reality, from product development (rapid prototyping, trade-off studies, etc) to implementation (DFM, manufacturing, assembly, and ramp). I have a history of leading cross functional efforts across internal teams, contract manufacturers, and FATP vendors (domestic and international) to drive product decisions and results.
I love the fast-paced innovation and all-in mentality that result from groups of passionate people working on seemingly impossible, high-impact projects, and I am constantly looking to become involved with such opportunities.
