Ian Smith is a Senior Electrical Engineer in San Jose with 14 years of hands-on experience designing and sustaining robotics hardware and embedded systems. He has driven platform improvements, failure root-cause analysis, and ECOs in production at Fetch Robotics and a stealth startup, pairing system block-diagram and PCB test-stand work with BOM and supply-chain mitigations. Trained at RIT with both BS and MS in Electrical Engineering (robotics focus), he blends power-electronics experience (supercharger design) with practical firmware and ROS integration for autonomous vehicles. A lifelong coder since 1978, he brings an unusually deep historical perspective on software-hardware interplay and a knack for turning field failures into durable design improvements.
