Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEli Orona is an embedded software engineer with a decade of hands-on experience spanning robotics, VLSI, control systems, and firmware for constrained devices. A University of Washington MS graduate, he writes highly optimized low-level code (including embedded Rust) and has driven safety-critical control algorithms for capacitor bank systems and WISP devices. He co-manages The Quilt Project, coordinating 40 developers and shipping complex Java APIs used by hundreds of thousands, while also contributing to embassy-rs by extending STM32 clock support and adding STM32F398 compatibility. Eli combines academic research collaboration with industry-facing engineering—designing FPGA systems, PCBs, and production-ready firmware—and has led outreach that engaged thousands of students. Comfortable from register-level MCU configuration to community leadership, he emphasizes safety, usability, and reproducible open-source toolchains. Based in Seattle, he brings rare breadth across hardware, low-level software, and large-scale open-source project stewardship.
