I founded WellPCB in 2008 with a simple mission: make professional PCB manufacturing accessible to companies of all sizes. What started as a small prototype shop in Shijiazhuang has grown into a multi-facility operation serving customers across Europe, North America, and Asia.

My background is hands-on engineering. Before starting WellPCB, I spent 5 years as a process engineer at a tier-1 automotive PCB supplier, where I learned the importance of quality systems and the real cost of defects. That experience shaped how we run our factories today.

I write technical articles to share what I have learned over 15+ years in this industry. My goal is to help engineers make informed decisions about PCB manufacturing without the marketing spin. When I recommend something, it is because I have seen it work in production, not because it sounds impressive.
