Today's episode is hosted by Danny Galvin and they are joined on the podcast by Matt Karesh, Head Of Defense at VELO3D. The conversation explores overengineering and the challenges of balancing technical excellence with practical decision-making across engineering and manufacturing. The discussion examines how teams can approach product development with greater efficiency, avoid unnecessary complexity and focus on delivering solutions that meet real operational requirements. Broader themes include innovation, engineering leadership and design optimisation in highly technical industries. The exchange highlights the importance of simplifying processes without compromising quality or performance. It also considers how advances in additive manufacturing, defence technology and modern engineering practices continue to influence product design, production and long-term business strategy. Throughout the discussion, overengineering is considered in the context of improving collaboration, accelerating development cycles and creating practical solutions that support sustainable innovation across complex engineering environments.
