About Arman Xavier Haghayegh

I\'m a Miami-born design technologist and systems-driven strategist leading complex architectural lighting and marine EV projects.At GlowbackLED, I oversee design, engineering integration, and technical strategy for large-scale custom lighting installations across hospitality, fitness, residential, and commercial markets. My work sits at the intersection of lighting design, product development, and systems engineering, bridging architects, GCs, designers, and our internal manufacturing teams.Over the past decade, I’ve helped transform GlowbackLED from a small family business into a high-growth custom manufacturing company through a focus on:Precision technical design and architectural integrationWhite-glove client experience (fast, expert, obsession-level service)Innovative product development Modern e-commerce and sales strategyProcess architecture across design → engineering → fabricationIn 2021, I co-founded E-Force Marine, where I serve as Chief Strategy Officer. We are developing Miami’s first 30-ft electric catamaran — the Aurora E30 — built on marine-grade electric systems that have been tested, refined, and proven on the water since 2022. Our propulsion architecture, battery management, and control systems are already operating successfully in real-world conditions, giving us a level of reliability most new marine EV companies don’t have. The E30 integrates these mature systems into a premium, high-performance platform designed for Miami’s waterways and the next generation of electric boating.Before entering the lighting and marine sectors, I studied Applied Mathematics at the University of Colorado Boulder — a background that continues to influence my analytical approach to design, manufacturing, and system optimization.When I’m not immersed in new projects, you’ll find me with my Chocolate Lab (Lido), cooking Persian food, exploring Champagne producers, or catching a marathon Marco Carola set at Space.
