About Josh Doherty

I am an R&D leader and product architect with 15+ years of experience building and scaling complex hardware and sensor platforms that accelerate scientific discovery.My technical foundation spans array-based sensing, beamforming, and signal processing (PhD, Biomedical Engineering), complemented by hands-on experience across cryogenics, optics, precision mechanics, and embedded systems (Montana Instruments). I specialize in product and system architecture, requirements flow-down, trade-space analysis, and end-to-end performance validation across multidisciplinary teams.I am a builder who enjoys operating at the intersection of deep technology and strategy, translating disruptive technical ideas into executable product vision, roadmaps, system architectures, organizational capability, and culture. This blend of systems thinking and strategic execution has allowed me to shape not only what gets built, but how teams scale and deliver reliably.Always open to thoughtful conversations around advanced hardware systems, product architecture, and deep-tech innovation for real-world impact.
