Nook

Shaping the Future of Reading by Shipping Flagship Tablets

I served as a Mechanical Product Design Engineer for the Nook Media, responsible for the mechanical architecture and mass production of the Nook Media Tablets (HD/HD+).

I managed the end-to-end hardware development lifecycle, from system architecture design to on-site manufacturing oversight in Asia. I collaborated with industrial designers and ODM partners to resolve yield issues, ensuring high-volume shipping reliability.

Key Impact

• Mass Production: Successfully shipped millions of units to US/UK markets
• Engineering Rigor: Solved critical reliability and manufacturing failures for flagship devices
• Patents: Inventor on 6 utility patents regarding component architecture (e.g., US 2014/0201997, US 2014/0204547)
