Google Hardware Product Sprint (HPS)

My Experience

Google's Hardware Product Sprint program gave me exposure to the world of consumer hardware design, an industry everyday consumers like myself take for granted. The program taught me the fascinating development, design, and manufacturing components that go into just about every electronic device. Under the guidance and mentorship from Google design engineers, I designed, prototyped, and assembled a smart speaker while applying design engineering principals such as tolerance analysis, screw mounting, and snap-fit design. Throughout my 12 weeks in the program, I had the unique opportunity to be able to collaborate and build with students from all across North America in the creation of our own Google assistant devices.
