Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoe Saavedra is a product-focused founder and CEO with 14 years building connected hardware and software experiences across IoT, wearables, mobile apps, and experiential installations. He combines hands-on engineering (hardware, embedded wireless, and app development) with product strategy, team leadership, and design education—having taught IoT and physical computing at Parsons since 2010. As founder of Infinite Objects and co‑founder of the Kickstarter-backed Air Quality Egg, he’s proven at turning prototypes into funded products and memorable branded activations (including the Google Talking Shoe). Joe excels at fast iterate-test-learn cycles, design-for-manufacture, and vendor/supply management, while frequently presenting and consulting for firms like IBM and clients including GIPHY and Nike. He’s equally at home in a lab, a classroom, or the factory floor, blending creative storytelling with rigorous system architecture to ship tangible, data-driven experiences.
