ABOUT ALBERT YANEZ
Removing obstacles to raise profitability through scalable manufacturing strategy\"I’m a hands-on executive and strategic operator with 30+ years of experience in manufacturing, operations, and global supply chain leadership. My expertise spans factory design/build, contract manufacturing, lean systems, and large-scale production ramp-ups — including over 1 million sq ft of factory infrastructure delivered across sectors like BESS, cleantech, semiconductors, and electronics.Early in my career, I learned the Toyota Production System and developed deep Lean Manufacturing proficiency through Kaizen, Demand Flow Technology, and global NPI programs. From scaling Western Digital’s disk drive output nearly 10x, to building greenfield factories across the U.S, Germany, and Malaysia, I’ve consistently turned complex visions into profitable, high-throughput operations.Today, I lead C4 Technology Consulting, where we advise startups and mid-market firms on how to build and scale factories — with a recent focus on battery energy storage (BESS). We help retrofit legacy facilities, launch new lines, commission automation systems, and bring products to market — often cutting manufacturing and supply chain costs significantly through the right CM partnerships.Whether I’m scaling a $160M cleantech startup, preparing a global contract manufacturer for private equity sale, or advising on site selection for a battery plant — I bring operational rigor, financial clarity, and the ability to move fast.
