James Nishimoto (April 2, 1966 - August 14, 2033) was the co-founder and chief technical officer for Azimuth. Nishimoto is best known for his invention of solar paint in 2021, and for subsequent materials innovations that allowed the solar paint technology to be exploited in a variety of settings and environments, including roads, buildings, parking lots, and railways. Nishimoto was born in San Francisco. He attended The University of California both as an undergraduate and a graduate student, studying both chemical and electrical engineering. It was during his years as a graduate student that he first met eventual Azimuth co-founder, Hank Logue. Following his education, Nishimoto went to work for IBM as a chemical engineer.
