Overview of Capabilities

 

Umberson Technology Solutions LLC is a culmination of my experience within Business Development, Sales, Marketing, Product Management, and Beta-site Launches for biotech and high-tech applications.   URS LLC has been replaced by Umberson Technology Solutions LLC. 

Since 2009, I've supported development of technology products for VC start-ups in the Food Safety, Industrial Micro, FSQR Software Automation, and Animal Health segments.  The focus has been upon FSQA, HACCP Processing Specialist, Biotechnology, food processing-bacteria detection, animal health- live production pathogens and vaccine efficacy.   The FSQA pathogen diagnostics, FSQR analytical software, and connectivity to blockchain was enhanced by my experience in HACCP Audits and Process Validations.  

I am uniquely positioned to provide advice for development of multi-hurdle HACCP systems that utilize different technologies.  I have been focused upon pathogen diagnostics and interventions in various food processing segments, protein live production, and animal health. Additional experience in nano technologies, industrial micro, MEOR for oil field applications/biofuels, and avian influenza.  My experience in nanotechnology emphasized nano-encapsulation of active components in medical, pharma, topical ointments for skin rehabilitation, nutraceutical, and petrochemical applications.

Prior to 2009, I was in high tech contract mfg. and rapid prototypes for medical device, consumer electronics, automotive electronics, retail merchandising, steel processing, agri-equipment, and construction.   I have unique experience in contract mfg. processes such as rapid prototyping, stereo lithography (SLA/SLS)/3D printing, design support, thermoset rubber molding, plastic injection molding, stamping, steel fabrication, and painting/shielding for custom components to OEM manufacturers.

I can help retail segment companies develop new products, develop retail marketing and merchandising systems via my experience in off-shore manufacturing, rapid prototyping, supply chain, marketing, online marketing and social media.
