2026 MacBook Neo

Contributions

• Led mechanical development of the MacBook Neo trackpad from architecture through production, integrating capacitive touch sensing and novel flexure design into a high-volume consumer product shipped to millions of users

• Developed python-based data analysis workflows accelerating tactility convergence and design prioritization using real build data

• Owned design of mechanical flexure, PCBA, cover glass, tactile switch, and tapes/foams across manufacturing processes including CNC machining, die cutting, MIM, chem etching, IOX, stamping, and laser welding, resulting in multiple filed patent applications covering novel mechanical architectures

• Partnered with cross functional teams spanning electrical engineering, manufacturing design, reliability, operations, and industrial design to deliver production ready hardware
