Ernesto Torres is a Staff Software Engineer based in Kirkland, WA, with over a decade of hands-on experience building mobile and server systems across startups and enterprise brands. He has led end-to-end engineering for mobile-first products and backend services—ranging from iOS/Android apps and embedded Bluetooth libraries to Node.js serverless architectures on AWS. At MyFitnessPal and Under Armour he’s focused on scalable product features, while earlier roles show deep experience in robotics, real-time communications (XMPP), and secure VOIP. Ernesto combines systems-level thinking from his Electronic Systems B.Sc. and Intelligent Systems M.Sc. with practical delivery, having architected prototypes, production backends, and automated test frameworks. Notably, his background spans low-level R&D (kernel/user I2C drivers, analog codec integration) to cloud serverless deployments, making him adept at bridging hardware-constrained and cloud-native solutions. He brings a pragmatic, research-informed approach to complex engineering problems and mentoring cross-functional teams.
