ABOUT JAMES PENNY

I am a Product Developer and Mechanical Design Engineer operating at the intersection of rigorous engineering and resource efficiency. My career spans academia, agile startups, and mature corporate consumer brands, giving me the ability to navigate fast-paced hurdles while maintaining the structure required for large-scale production.I specialize in taking products from \"scratch\" to shelf, ensuring that mechanical precision and project goals never drift apart. My approach to solving complex technical challenges is best illustrated by my recent work in heavy-lift UAS (Parallel Flight Technologies) and scaled green hydrogen production (Verdagy).What I am looking for: I am seeking a role with a company tackling modern challenges: resource scarcity, market differentiation, and climate-conscious design.Innovation in Action: Beyond the office, I apply my engineering and business skills to marine conservation. I am currently developing a proprietary method for sea urchin removal and land-based aquaculture, turning an ecological problem into a commercial product (uni) to support kelp forest restoration.
