About Scott Korlann

I’m an engineering leader who builds high-performing teams and durable products in energy storage and advanced power systems. Over the past 17+ years, I’ve led end-to-end development of new capacitor technologies, scaled manufacturing, and turned complex requirements into reliable hardware for mission-critical applications.I specialize in bridging R&D and operations: aligning roadmaps to customer needs, improving quality and yield, and creating processes that hold up under pressure and tight budgets. Along the way I’ve delivered meaningful business results, strengthened supplier partnerships, and mentored engineers into confident owners.
