I am Alvin Suemitsu, a happily married Filipino Japanese who grew up in the Philippines and who currently lives in Japan. I am a network engineer, systems administrator, infrastructure manager, plant capacity planner, manufacturing analyst and a serial entrepreneur. I had major IT projects from different institutions ranging from financial trading institutions, technology companies, famous fashion brands, etc. I built the first data center of Tesla in Tokyo, built the call center of Crocs in Tokyo, built and integrated Credit Suisse, Aberdeen and Nomura’s Trading System and various other projects. I believe I was born for technology and it is my mission in life to share it to society and make a dent in the world.
I saw how technology helped Japan with their daily lives and how they had utilized (Kata) and constantly improved it (Kaizen) to create an almost perfect society. Without technology, the Japanese society would not be as efficient as they are now. Japanese love technology and it is very part of their culture.
I also saw how the backbone network evolve from 10 Mbps into what it is now. As more bandwidth became available to the public, the cloud and Internet Of Things was born. As a result, local control panels are no longer required to run our automation but just host them in the cloud. Services like AWS, Google and the likes can host Sonoff almost everywhere and anywhere. As long as there is internet and the cloud services is reachable between your phone and the Sonoff devices, you will have control over your automation system.
As Social Media improved and the network technology in the Philippines became better , I thought of bringing the same technology to the Philippines. This is why I started Sonoff in the Philippines (Sonoff Philippines). Through our technology company, B2B Automations and its founders of Global IOT Experts, Automation Veterans and Security Specialist, we will help in innovating our beloved country into a modern one.
My hope is that Sonoff, with the help of our highly skilled B2B Automation Engineers will be able to innovate your life through technology and consequently allow you to live your life to the full and allow you to just do the things that really matters most. Lastly, to the people who would use Sonoff to think more of using it for further innovation, here is one of my favorite quote from Rob Siltanen. The same quote used by Steve Jobs. I hope you will find a community here and that we can help each other through Sonoff and other life innovating movements.
“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
