• Hardware Excellence
  Specify requirements for sensors, optics, radar modules, SoCs and thermal/EMC constraints; balance performance, cost and manufacturability.

• Sensor Fusion & Edge AI
  Guide integration of radar detection, encoded video pipelines, on‑device AI classification, and fusion logic to maximize detection while minimizing nuisance alarms.

• Lifecycle Management
  Lead market research, requirements, competitive teardown, business case, and launch at key trade shows (GSX, ISC West).

• Prioritization
  Write detailed PRDs, user stories and validation plans; manage priorities and trade‑offs with R&D.

• Customer Validation
  Run field trials with integrators and end‑users at critical infrastructure sites; gather feedback and iterate hardware/firmware revisions.

• Sales Enablement
  Deliver datasheets, launch decks, battle cards and demo kits to arm Sales, Marketing, and distribution partners.
