Smart Hardware & Companion Software Development
Connecting product requirements, system design and development
Product definition and system design
Use cases, competing products and technical feasibility inform product positioning, feature priorities and development boundaries. I consider smart hardware, companion apps and cloud services as a coordinated system, defining data flows, interfaces, cross-device workflows, exception handling and safe-use requirements.
Requirements and development coordination
I maintain structured requirements, version records and change notes, and prepare product specifications, interface agreements and acceptance criteria. I work with hardware and software suppliers on design reviews and technical discussions, following up on integration, iterations and issue resolution to keep delivery scope aligned.
Product documentation and technical disclosure
I prepare user guides and development deliverables, organize technical proposals and flow diagrams, and contribute to patent disclosure materials and related technical discussions. These materials connect product use, implementation and technical communication to support reviews and subsequent development.
