Product designer and engineer. I take ideas to something that can actually be made, and build the tools that get me there faster.

Hearing motor faults without opening the motor

A vibration-based diagnostic tool for e-bike motors, so they get repaired instead of replaced. Paper at IWAR 2026.

About

Portrait of Dion Vijverberg
Dion2026

I like understanding how products work by taking them apart. At eighteen I bought a fifty-year-old Zündapp moped without knowing how a two-stroke engine worked. I've since spent more time repairing it than riding it.

I still work that way. I'd rather build something rough and test it than keep drawing. These days that's as often software as hardware: Blender add-ons and small tools that I design and build together with Claude.

Right now I'm doing both at Click-Pax: designing packaging, and building the software that turns a request into a proposal.

    I design the tool and how it should work; Claude writes most of the code. It lives in a shared repository with tests and pull requests.
