About Ming Li

My work sits at the intersection of advanced manufacturing and energy systems. Specifically, the process of taking emerging technologies from early development through scalable, production-ready implementation. Over 9+ years, I\'ve built expertise across the full manufacturing lifecycle: materials & process development, equipment validation, program architecture, supplier integration, and production ramp. I\'m most effective in environments where technical depth and cross-functional coordination both matter, where the engineering challenges are real and the stakes of getting to production are high.Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering · PMP · Lean Six Sigma Black Belt · 25+ peer-reviewed publications · 1 published and 2 pending U.S. Patents in electrode fabrication.
