Default Bye bye Aptera employee #0- Brian G.

This guy:

Electrical Engineer Brian G. left Aptera today.

Brian worked for us before anyone else, early on, pro-bono developing the suspension ride control system, and has developed all of the infortainment and instrumentation since. Designed his own video processing boards to give us low cost camera and video integration, wrote C,C++,C+ and ASM. Developed BMS CAN-BUS code and algorithms, developing HW and SW to interface with batteries and inverters and chargers....he made the electric car WORK.

But all of that pales in how he helped form the culture with Chris and myself- working for free until we could hire him with the second round of funding, he was truly our 0th employee and most dedicated. Doggedly solving problems until it worked, on the track or the presser, over the weekend often setting the standard for engineering excellence. Pat yourself on the back, Brian. You did good.

Brian- thanks for your service to Aptera. What little bit Chris and I did, we couldn't have done it without you. You took us where we only dreamed we could go.

Some of Brian's work- all the SW and most of the HW are his design in this pic!

Brian,

Talented and dedicated employees like you are hard to come by. I wish I could find more employees for my business like you.

Best wishes in your next endeavor.
