Summary
Aarthi Gurusami is a Senior Systems Integration Engineer in San Francisco with a decade of hands-on experience building and validating embedded and robotics systems using Python and C++. She combines firmware, PCB design, and desktop-to-embedded integrations—having built payload computers for high-altitude balloons, led software-in-the-loop validation for autonomous aircraft, and troubleshot fleets of unmanned surface vessels. Comfortable across Mac, Linux, and Windows, she routinely integrates sensors (echosounders, ADCPs, IMUs) and devices over GPIB, RS232, I2C, and Ethernet using gRPC and custom RPC layers. Aarthi’s work emphasizes reducing hardware dependency through dockerized simulations and automation, and she has repeatedly turned complex, cross-disciplinary problems into reliable test and validation frameworks. Her background in bioengineering and bio-photonics informs a methodical approach to signal and sensor systems that’s as much experimental science as it is production engineering.
