Combining fashion with engineering

When two totally different (and totally excellent) companies get together, you know it will lead to something really unique!

Everyone is always eager to see the new Nike-Philips products. And I am really happy to be a part of the excitement. Based on information from our product architect, I propose and design cost-effective and reliable hardware platforms. I also make sure that hardware designs meet Philips' quality specifications.

The fact that our product can be combined with fashion is very interesting. It's such a new and exciting market. One of my main challenges is how to implement all of the many creative and innovative ideas we and Nike come up with.

Besides working, I am a soccer enthusiast. Not just as a fan, but also as a player. It's not only a good way to blow off steam, it also gives me some valuable insight into the needs of athletes - and the Nike-Philips consumer.

The in-service training courses, and the stable and fruitful working environment allows me to pursue my career dreams. And the sense of security and vitality is essential for maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle, especially in a stressful city like Hong Kong.
