Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Firth is a product engineer with eight years of experience blending mechanical design, regulatory compliance, and software-enabled tooling to bring complex hardware products to market. Based in Thousand Oaks, he has driven product stewardship and environmental compliance programs at major medical and consumer companies, building VBA and data extraction systems that scaled across organizations. At Meissner Filtration he applies hands-on engineering and software skills to develop practical solutions for filtration products, while earlier roles at Abbott and J&J honed his ability to translate cross-functional engineering data into auditable quality systems. He pairs a UC Santa Barbara mechanical engineering background with an MBA from UC Irvine, bridging technical execution and business decision-making. Notably, he has a track record of creating internal tooling and process systems—like PLM-to-compliance data pipelines and SolidWorks revision controls—that reduced manual effort and improved traceability.
