Two clean-energy startups

Before the Bay, I worked with two San Diego clean-energy startups: finding customers for one, making the other’s data fast.

Who would buy, before anything is built?

The question
The first team needed to know which customers would pay for their product before they committed to building it.
What I did
I ran a sixteen-week customer discovery for the team, across several countries, to find who would buy before anything was built.

Can the data keep up?

The question
The second team’s product depended on many outside datasets arriving fresh and complete.
What I did
I built a pipeline that brings the datasets into one place, with queues, retries and checks that flag stale data instead of passing it on.

Results pending their sources

Results are not shown yet. The discovery findings and the pipeline’s speed come from records I still have to attach; until then this page claims the work, not its impact.
