Erin King is a software engineer based in Portland with 12 years of experience building robotics and mechatronics hardware-software systems for industry and entertainment. A recent MIT graduate, Erin has progressed from hands-on hardware technician roles at RightHand Robotics to software engineering positions at RightHand and Google, blending low-level embedded insight with cloud-scale software practices. Their background includes internships at SpaceX, X (the Moonshot Factory), and multiple stints at Google, reflecting comfort working in high-velocity, research-driven teams. Erin’s work sits at the intersection of perception, control, and systems engineering, enabling robust automation in real-world environments. Colleagues describe them as equally at home debugging physical test rigs as shipping production services, and they bring a pragmatic, experiment-oriented mindset to complex mechatronic problems.
