MEET Whitaker

How long have you been a part of the team?

I joined HiViz in September 2020, so not very long yet, but hopefully for years to come!


What do you do for the company?

I am the embedded lead for HiViz’s new generation of smart lighting solutions, like the Brow Light Gen 2 (BG2), as well many upcoming smart products that I’m not sure I’m allowed to hint at yet!


Why do you come to work every day?

Our first responders come to work every day because we need them to be here every day. I come to work every day to work towards making their job of saving lives easier. It’s a small way of saying thanks to an industry that we as a society could not do without for even a single day!


What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

I love spending as much time outdoors as possible. Mountain biking and snowboarding are two passions of mine, and with dangerous hobbies it is especially important to me that our great first responders be as well equipped for their job as possible!


What is your favorite product?

Without doubt the BG2. Its modular design and distributed control system make it a truly remarkable product, and of course it comes with HiViz FireTech’s industry leading light optics and lifetime warranty!
