Introduction

Throughout my journey as a seasoned entrepreneur, I’ve founded OmniEdge (established in 2021) in the United States and an EdgeComputing IoT startup in China (established in 2018). With a decade of global experience in the robotics and automobile sectors, I’ve honed my skills in product development and interdisciplinary integration. I’ve built an international team of experts from countries like Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Macao, Germany, the US, and China, successfully managing remote, cross-functional teams in my entrepreneurial endeavors.

My wide-ranging expertise in robotics, AI, and IoT,SaaS has paved the way for successful enterprise project implementations across numerous industries. Skilled in handling cross-national distributed teams, I’ve had the privilege of speaking at Tsinghua University in China on industrial robots and the industrial internet, as well as at Bocconi University in Italy on Peer-to-Peer VPN for enterprises.

In my previous capacity as an expert for the National Industrial Robot Cloud Platform, I contributed to multiple national-level industry white papers as an editorial board member. My product received a nomination for the esteemed 2019 Golden Pin Design Award, and my company secured second place in the Artificial Intelligence Town Incubation Camp. Additionally, we participated in both the NVIDIA Inception program and AWS Accelerator programs in China and the United States.

Throughout my career, I’ve held positions like the Asian Technology && Project Lead in Germany, where I oversaw multinational automotive projects, and a robotics application engineer, developing state-of-the-art applications for the semiconductor and automobile industries. My professional experiences span various countries, including Asia, Europe, and the United States.
