Product development and consulting across risk capital, AI, and hardware.
Some are ours end to end; some are the part of someone else's product that had to be right.

Underwriting, pricing, and the data architecture underneath them — program design starting from the model rather than the paperwork.
Applied models where they change the economics of an operation: risk filtering, decision tooling, and the plumbing that makes either usable day to day.
Block diagrams through silicon selection and schematic review, with the vendor trade-offs written down rather than assumed.
The layer that makes a device usable — bring-up, control interfaces, and the management tools built around them.
Most projects fail in the gap between what was assumed and what was written down. We close that gap before anyone opens an editor.
Requirements, constraints, and the failure modes that actually matter for this problem — captured as a document, not a conversation.
Architecture, component selection, and interface contracts. Trade-offs get recorded with their reasoning, so they can be revisited later.
The spec is challenged before it's implemented. It is always cheaper to find the problem on paper than in the field.
Implementation follows the spec. When reality disagrees with the document, the document gets updated too.
