""It wasn't a lot of money, but enough that I thought I'd sold out," said Singh, who grew up in London. "I was 14 and I had to work out what I wanted to do with my life. So, every day for two weeks, I thought about it really deeply. I did nothing else. And I basically came to a set of conclusions that have driven my life ever since:""
""I wanted to design and invent stuff, and what I saw in the industry was that the tools, processes, and workflows-the fundamental approach to how we design hardware-haven't fundamentally changed since the space race," Singh told Fortune. "But the products we're building have gotten massively more complex. Software now basically drives every element of every component. And there was a disconnect between the products we were designing and the approach to design.""
Pari Singh experienced an existential crisis at 14 after earning notable money. He concluded life’s purpose is maximizing positive impact. He trained as a mechanical engineer and worked at BAE Systems and BP. He observed that hardware design tools, processes, and workflows remained largely unchanged since the space race while products grew far more complex and software-driven. He founded Flow Engineering in 2023, building on a previously developed tool to modernize hardware design and align design approaches with increasing product complexity. He views maximizing the delta between existence and nonexistence as a moral metric guiding his career and company mission.
