Summary
Easton Bornemeier is a senior embedded flight software engineer with nine years building safety-critical embedded systems, autonomy stacks, and robotics platforms from prototype to production. He blends deep hardware-focused development—FreeRTOS, Embedded C/C++, custom PCBs, and CAN bus tooling—with higher-level autonomy work in ROS, motion planning, and computer vision, having led model-predictive control and hitching alignment projects that materially improved vehicle uptime and docking success. He has proven experience scaling test and HIL infrastructure, authoring multithreaded hardware simulations and CI pipelines to meet ISO-26262 rigor, and has managed small engineering teams while hiring and mentoring junior talent. An adjunct instructor and graduate researcher, he communicates complex systems clearly to students and high-profile clients alike, and his practical curiosity shows in building utilities such as a USB-SPI-CAN driver and company-wide Foxglove visualization extensions. Based in Denver, he’s obsessed with embedded systems and robotics and excels at turning research-grade autonomy into robust fielded products.
