Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoshua Petrin is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building embedded and autonomy software, now applying his skills to surgical robotics after multi-year work on self-driving systems at Torc Robotics. He combines an electrical engineering background from Vanderbilt with hands-on firmware, systems integration, and CAD experience from aerospace and hardware-focused internships. At Torc he progressed from Software Engineer I to II, contributing to production autonomy stacks, and recently moved to Virtuoso Surgical where he’s bridging perception, control, and safety-critical software. Based in Nashville, he brings a practical maker’s mindset—mentoring in university makerspaces and designing radiation-tested PCBs—so he thrives where low-level hardware meets high-assurance software.
