Summary
Justin Rushin is a Senior Automation Engineer with 11 years of hands-on software engineering experience across robotics, high-performance storage, and QA automation. He’s built and maintained full-stack systems—from TypeScript/React UIs hosted on robots to Python microservices controlling real-world hardware and FreeBSD-based storage APIs—often owning projects end-to-end and mentoring others. Known for shipping hard-to-deliver initiatives, he turned around previously stalled projects at NetApp and led delivery of the Bolt standalone UI at IAM Robotics. His pragmatic blend of embedded/OS-level knowledge and cloud-native tooling (Google Cloud, Docker, RabbitMQ, Redis) helps bridge hardware, middleware, and web interfaces. Based in Greater Pittsburgh, he combines a rigorous CS foundation (University of Pittsburgh, Cum Laude) with a bias for testing, triage, and maintainability that keeps complex systems reliable in production. A detail-oriented problem-solver, he’s comfortable pairing low-level debugging with product-focused stakeholder communication.
