Problem solving, executed well.
Engineering & industrial design.
Hi, I'm Naser — a mechanical engineering leader and industrial design enthusiast based in California. I currently lead advanced-technology and AI-adoption initiatives at Edwards Lifesciences, sitting at the intersection of human factors engineering, computational simulation, and next-generation medical device packaging.
"Problem solving through good design" is the magic eight ball I confide in, both professionally and personally. I've spent my career either working solo or leading effective, motivated teams of product and packaging engineers, artists, scientists, and entrepreneurs — my interests sit at the intersection of design and ethnographic innovation.
Engineering Leadership
Fifteen years leading product, packaging, and manufacturing engineering teams — from tooling on offshore oil & gas platforms to $250M+ medical-device portfolios.
Industrial Design
Cradle-to-grave product development: sketching, concept generation, FEA simulation, and physical prototyping across packaging, consumer goods, and medical devices.
AI & Manufacturing
Building text-to-code workflows, computer-vision inspection systems, and AI adoption strategy for advanced manufacturing and packaging.
