Hey, I'm Ian Cleary, Senior RF Engineering Lead

I craft RF designs that push performance to manufacturing scale and cost. Based in Phoenix, I bring ideas quickly off the computer and into test, in order to accelerate progress through iteration and learning quickly, and by being willing to add or remove parts, as (outer) space demands it.

Mental Open Loops

Close your loops. Watch your energy return. Mental clutter is more exhausting than physical work ever will be.
