WORK HISTORY
Founder and CEO @Watts Battery Corp
Palo Alto, CA, US
Founder and CEO of WATTS BATTERY, an international startup with the mission of making renewable energy a common mass-market phenomenon. I founded the company, built and managed a dream team of talented engineers to create the product from scratch, in just four years leading the project from prototype to mass production. I developed GTM strategy and received pre-orders at the market launch on CES 2018. I led the company through the tough time of the pandemic without laying off any valuable team members and even raised a new round of funding in 2020.The company designed and developed the first consumer-friendly uni-cell modular power storage system with an integrated energy management system, making it possible for everyone to manage power sources at their home or apartment. It\'s an all-in-one design, combining all components for a home energy storage and supply system into one power cell, with the dimensions of a suitcase and the weight of only 14kg per unit. The system connects seamlessly to our cloud platform Watts Battery. LINK and adjusts its performance to the user profile, learning the user’s consumption data. This combination of energy storage and the platform allows homeowners to sell energy surplus and make money.Milestones• 200+ units deployed, 115% YoY revenue growth• From TRL 0 to TRL 9 and series production in 4 years• 5 investment rounds with $4M in total • Shortlisted by NREL as a prospective emerging technology• B Corp certification • Winner of Solar Impulse Foundation award as one of global efficient solutions• CES 2018 debut resulting pre-orders • $5m+ in pre-orders and contracts at this point• Partners and B2B-customers in 11 countries • TechCrunch 2017 NY Watts is a huge battery that powers your home: https://techcrunch.com/2017/05/16/watts-is-a-huge-battery-that-powers-your-home/Learn about our project here
