Modbot

I built Modbot, a modular robotics startup delivering enterprise-grade robots and a 3D SaaS platform that cuts deployment from months to minutes for clients like Siemens and Boeing.

I co-founded Modbot, a San Francisco robotics startup, building modular industrial robots and a browser-based 3D platform for fast configuration, programming, and deployment. I led product design, strategy, and development, closing contracts with Siemens, Boeing, Denso, and Magna, scaling the team to 18 engineers, and securing the company’s first $1M+ in bookings. This project highlights my ability to deliver complex, full-stack tech from concept to enterprise-ready products.

About The Startup

In 2013, I co-founded Modbot, a San Francisco–based robotics company pioneering modular industrial robots. We built industrial-grade modular hardware paired with a 3D interactive browser-based platform for building, programming, monitoring, and ordering robots.

My Contributions

  • Raised $10M+ USD in venture funding from top firms and corporate partners.
  • Led business development, product design, strategy, and management.
  • Guided robotics & AI R&D from conception through manufacture.
  • Closed contracts with Siemens, Boeing, Denso, Magna, and Tier 1 manufacturers.
  • Scaled the team from 2 founders to 18 people.
  • Secured the company’s first $1M+ in bookings.

Impact

  • Delivered modular robotic systems that reduced deployment cost and complexity.
  • Launched Composer, a browser-based drag-and-drop programming tool enabling robot setup in under 15 minutes.
  • Built a reputation as the “AWS of robotics” with pilots converting to long-term enterprise customers.

Tech Stack & Skills

Hands-on across the full stack — from low-level robotics to scalable web software.

  • Languages & Systems: C++, Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Real-Time Linux.
  • Frameworks & Tools: React, 3D simulation frameworks, cloud integration.
  • Expertise: Full-stack architecture, API development, product design, cross-functional team leadership.

Why It Matters for You

Building Modbot from the ground up gave me deep experience in scaling products, leading multi-disciplinary teams, and delivering complex technology into real customers’ hands. I now bring that same execution focus to client projects — whether it’s a mobile MVP, SaaS platform, or enterprise-grade solution.
