Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Johnson is an experienced electrical engineer with 11 years designing mixed-signal electronics, embedded software, and production-ready PCB assemblies across medical, automotive, and consumer products. He has led hardware and firmware teams from concept to manufacturing—designing custom BMS, telemetry, and control systems for high-voltage EV applications and guiding short-run and mass-production PCB stuffing and reflow processes. His background spans sensor materials development (including slip casting and firing of YSZ ceramics), wiring harnesses, mechanical enclosures, and hands-on circuit board testing, making him equally at home in lab prototyping and production floors. A proven mentor and project lead since his university robotics and NASA mining team days, he couples practical manufacturing know-how with systems-level design thinking. Now based in Mesa, Arizona, he brings cross-disciplinary depth and a knack for turning complex electrical systems into reliable, manufacturable products.
