Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolEmiliano Orué is a Senior Firmware Engineer with 10+ years of experience building autonomy, control and embedded systems for robotics and heavy machinery, currently focused on embedded Android and sensing stacks for on-machine guidance at Caterpillar Trimble. He blends hands-on firmware bring-up and low-level control with higher-level ROS/ROS 2 architecture design, having led autonomy work on the OXIN autonomous vineyard tractor including centimetre‑level GNSS localization, perception pipelines and plug‑and‑play smart attachments. Emiliano has a strong simulation and DevOps background—setting up Gazebo-based R&D and CI, Dockerized devcontainers, Jenkins pipelines and Ansible deployments—to accelerate testing and production releases. He taught applied robotics and ROS at university level, which shaped his pragmatic approach to transferring research into deployable systems and mentoring junior engineers. Equally comfortable with microcontroller C/FreeRTOS designs and ROS-based navigation, he often bridges electronics and software teams to deliver robust, field‑ready autonomy. His long-running personal repository of open-source robotics projects reflects a curiosity-driven approach that started with a high‑school hexapod and now informs production-grade solutions.
