Senior🎓
Top SchoolHarish Pullagurla is an engineering manager specializing in machine learning and autonomy with nine years of experience building self-driving and perception products, currently leading ML engineering at Torc Robotics in Austin. He helped scale a startup from ~25 to 1000+ people and has progressed from hands-on software and camera-app development at Samsung to leading multi-team projects and product-facing ML systems for commercial truck autonomy. His background—M.S. in ECE with a focus on computer vision and robotics from NC State—underpins deep expertise in perception, world modeling, and mapping tools, with a shipped consumer camera product early in his career.
