Senior engineer

Hey there, I’m John Teel, an electronics design engineer, serial entrepreneur, blogger, and the founder of Predictable Designs. As a senior design engineer at Texas Instruments (TI) I designed dozens of successful electronic microchips. My designs can be found in all kinds of popular electronic devices including some from Apple and Intel. Predictable Designs is where product development, electronics, and business all intersect. This is not a website about electronics for fun, but instead it’s about creating new electronic products that can be manufactured and sold at a profit.
