About Scott Stanford

Over 25 years of experience as both a project leader and self-directed senior contributor, developing mechanical and mechatronic systems, robots, reliability programs, and test equipment.If you want to discuss how Nature- and Forest-Tech can be force multipliers for nature-based solutions to the climate and biodiversity crises, connect with me here on LinkedIn.Specialties• Tackling ill-defined problems, capturing the big picture, identifying the long pole issues, and diving in to solve them with thorough interviewing, design, testing, and analysis.• Adapting projects, plans, and processes to realities on the ground. Balancing low-key informality with the structure and process necessary to successfully complete projects on time and budget.• System-level reliability engineering, crossing the disciplines of mechanical, electrical, and software design to make products as reliable and robust as possible, even in the face of harsh environments, unexpected situations, imperfect sensor data, and abusive users.• Designing “first-ever” innovative mechanisms, devices, and robots.
