Summary
Garrett Hart is a software engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building embedded, networking, and dev-ops focused systems, now contributing to grid software at MISO. He has a track record of turning hardware-intensive problems into reliable software—ranging from RF signal acquisition and CAN bus tooling to Kubernetes-driven test-stand telemetry that saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in consumables. Garrett co-founded and scaled Rose Rocketry from five students to a 40-person competitive team, leading manufacturing, documentation, and a novel pneumatic flight-control system for a mile-high rocket. His background spans low-level C/C++ and firmware through Python, Kafka, Docker, and Prometheus/Grafana, with regular work on automated test benches and embedded Linux. Based in Carmel, Indiana, he brings an engineer’s discipline plus a decade of mentoring FIRST Robotics teams, combining technical delivery with sustained community impact. Colleagues rely on him when projects require rapid iteration under pressure and careful integration of hardware and software.
