Mat is a technical design and project management specialist. He brings a wealth of experience in solving technical and engineering challenges across a range of industries. Prior to Tricycle, he worked inside major automotive, manufacturing and technology companies and has brought with him the rigor and commercial experience required to get products off the drawing board and into the market.

Project management is at the core of Mat’s talents. His ability to manage the timelines, suppliers, risks and commercial issues involved in product development has helped him to prove himself time and time again.

Mat compliments his technical design knowledge with the latest computer simulation technology. His experience doing crash test simulations for Ford led him to introduce finite element analysis (FEA) as a common tool within Tricycle projects. (This allows future designs to be virtually tested during design)
