About Daniel Stanley

I’m a seasoned engineer, leader, designer and product developer. With over three decades of experience, I’m well-versed in operational management, product design, numerical modeling, material characterization, process development and project management. My career has led me to product development opportunities in aerospace, medical devices and, most recently, high tech metrology products. I’ve contributed at all levels as a member of cross-functional teams delivering a variety of products that were market disrupters. My professional experience covers the spectrum from concept to market launch, from research prototypes to production quality units. I’m an achievement oriented engineer with the ability to zoom in and zoom out as required by team needs. As a data driven decision maker, I consistently seek the requisite level of information necessary to mitigate various business and technical risks to acceptable levels. Guided by sound principles, I thrive in innovative, diverse, inclusive, fast-paced environments. A perpetual learner, I’m continually inspired by the possibilities the future holds to do good things and make this a better place for all of us.
