Fadi Alladkani is a Senior Software Engineer in San Jose with six years of experience applying a unique blend of mechanical, robotics, and systems software expertise to real-world products. Trained as a mechanical engineer and holding a Master's in Robotics from WPI, he moves fluidly across the full robotics stack—from hardware and microcontrollers to high-level architecture and cloud-integrated AI. His recent work fuses low-level system programming with ML to enable smarter edge and cloud behavior, a skillset honed through roles at iRobot and Tesla. At iRobot he progressed from intern to engineering roles focused on autonomous systems, and at Tesla he contributes to large-scale, safety-critical software platforms. He makes decisions with a systems-level perspective, explicitly weighing tradeoffs across hardware, firmware, and software. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic designs that bridge research algorithms and production constraints.
