I began my journey into design and engineering services at the age of 13, when I needed to fill an elective course as a freshman in high school. I randomly chose something called "Mechanical Drafting Basics" and the rest is history. After that first class, I had my first taste of purpose in life!! It was art within boundaries, and it was purely fascinating to me. I have never deviated from this path over the last 20+ years, through college, and my career that has spanned various industries. I am now fortunate enough and extremely excited to be in a position to put my skills to work for myself, and for you. At Sonoma Valley Design Engineering we provide a passion and dedication to design that reflects my values and desire to build long lasting client relationships. My goal is to help you succeed, in any way I can. This is more than a job, this is a lifetime of craft and working towards being the most effective engineering services provider I can be. I hope that we can build a long-lasting relationship that is beneficial to all.

My skill-set and experience is broad. I am a "sword for hire" for those that need swift and sharp technical mechanical design work completed and a guru for sustaining engineering. The majority of my experience is with lithium-ion battery design engineering, launch and ramp in large-scale manufacturing however I also have experience with forensic engineering and lithium-ion cell mechanical R&D. My most notable career-highlight is creating a global sustaining-engineering model and building a team-structure to execute thereto. I've done this twice, once for DeWalt's highest-volume lithium-ion battery product (>10 production lines in 3 factories globally) and again for Tesla's Model 3/Y legacy battery production (2 Giga-factories). I developed an assortment of methods, best-practices, strategies and techniques to define and optimize post-launch product/production sustaining.

I’m José Puga, a Mechanical & Mechatronics Design Engineer driven by the intersection of precision engineering, automation, and creativity. I specialize in designing and prototyping intelligent systems — from custom actuators and motion control assemblies to complete electromechanical mechanisms. My background blends mechanical design, embedded electronics, and control systems, allowing me to approach every project as a complete system — not just a CAD model. Whether it’s developing 3D-printable prototypes, integrating sensors and PCBs into mechanical structures, or optimizing designs for manufacturability, I build solutions that are both functional and production-ready. I’ve worked on projects involving: 3D modeling & product design (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, OnShape) Motion systems & robotics (SCARA arms, linear actuators, servo systems) HMI integration & control interfaces (Nextion, Arduino, Raspberry Pi) Rapid prototyping & fabrication (3D printing, CNC, sheet metal) PCB design & embedded electronics (KiCad, EasyEDA, Altium) I’m passionate about turning ideas into working products that perform reliably in the real world — whether it’s a precision instrument, automation tool, or consumer-ready prototype. I value clear communication, engineering accuracy, and designs that reflect craftsmanship and purpose. If you’re looking for someone who can take your concept from sketch to functional prototype, combining engineering precision with creativity and discipline — I’d love to collaborate.
