Hey there 👋

I'm Jon Kaplan

Product Manager and Engineer

I'm a problem solver with a deep understanding of user experience, robotics, and AI. I navigate complex environments, from launching products in multiple countries to securing millions in funding. Whether it's saving soldiers' lives with exoskeletons or enabling 100 million drone deliveries annually, I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and lead projects from ideation to implementation.

Let's connect!

My last projects

Autonomous Drone Detect and Avoid (DAA)
