Jason (Man Fung) TSE

Electrical Design Engineer | Hardware Prototyping Engineer

Jason spent his early years in Hong Kong cultivating a passion for electronics and hardware. Completely self-taught, his proudest achievement was building a replica of Iron Man’s helmet.

Jason is currently an Electrical Design Engineer at Tomorrow Lab, a New York City-based invention studio. Not only does he specialize in PCB design/fabrication and BLE technologies, but he also contributes to other facets of engineering and design, and blends them into thoughtful products. Citizen, IMAX, Nerf, and Digikey are some of the happy clients he has collaborated with.

Previously, Jason earned his Master’s Degree from NYU ITP, where he specialized in Electronics and Human-Computer Interface Design. Before NYU, he wore both lead designer‘s and engineer’s hat in MIT EMSI. Teamed up with other bright minds, they pulled off a sound Go-to-Market product prototype and strategy.

To this day, Jason’s product design/engineering philosophy is all about invoking that sense of wonder, meanwhile in quest of the equilibrium between efficient engineering and intuitive design.

Jason is an evangelist of “expert generalism”. He believes deconstructing seemingly irrelevant knowledge into fundamental principles, then applying them to uncharted situations and domains will bring innovation. He puts it into practice utilizing his extensive foundation of media design, coding, and fabrication for his hardware inventing career.
