Summary
Michael Cheung is a Senior Product Design Engineer with 12 years of experience building high-volume consumer products and pioneering early-stage technologies at Apple, where he has driven architecture-defining work across Mac and input technologies. He blends mechanical design, mechatronics, and embedded systems expertise—grounded in an MIT BSc and Stanford MS—to shepherd projects from concept and haptics research through prototyping, patents (4 issued, several pending), and mass production. Notable contributions include module leadership on M1/M2 MacBook platforms and leading novel haptics and wearable sensor investigations at Apple and Google. Comfortable in cross-functional, fast-paced environments, he has also contributed to space and robotics projects at JPL and taught haptics at Stanford, reflecting a rare mix of human factors insight and systems-level engineering.
