Summary
Abraham Shultz is a Senior Research Engineer with 15 years of hands-on experience blending robotics, firmware, and research software across academia, government labs, and industry. He currently applies his expertise at Scientific Systems after a decade at UMass Lowell where he built robot hardware, ROS modules, neuronal network simulations, and bespoke interfaces to cultured neurons. His background spans low-level firmware for 8051 processors and Windows Mobile/RIM platforms to higher-level simulation and machine-vision systems, showing rare full-stack embedded-to-research fluency. He interned at NASA Ames contributing C interpolation code for robotic testbeds, and has taught and built web and teaching tools earlier in his career. Abraham’s academic path culminates in graduate work and a PhD in computer science, informing a methodical approach to complex experimental systems. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic tinkerer who moves seamlessly between hardware debugging and algorithm design to make robots actually work in the real world.
