Summary
Eduardo Garcia is a Principal Electrical and Firmware Engineer with over a decade of experience designing hardware and embedded systems for robotics, IoT, and commercial products. Based in Redwood City, he currently leads electrical firmware efforts at Robust.AI after principal roles at Delve/Bresslergroup, combining schematic-to-PCBA hardware design with C/C++ firmware on bare-metal and RTOS platforms. He also teaches graduate-level edge computing and embedded systems at the University of Pennsylvania, coaching students through real-world PCB layout, FreeRTOS development, and cloud-connected IoT prototypes. His background spans academic research—developing novel sensors and remote-access labs—to industry work that consolidated multi-product functionality into cost-effective boards for manufacture. Known for pragmatic prototyping and cross-disciplinary collaboration with mechanical and industrial designers, he balances systems-level architecture with hands-on debugging and manufacturability. Colleagues describe his Github as "code backyard," reflecting a practical, tinkerer mindset that underpins robust product engineering.
