Justin Shetty is a firmware-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience building embedded and flight software across satellites and launch systems, currently contributing as a Member of Technical Staff at Etched in San Jose. He brings deep C++ and Python expertise, having written microcontroller firmware, kernel modules, and flight computer applications at companies including Astranis and Planet, and designed hardware-in-the-loop test systems at Blue Origin. His background spans both low-level RTOS/kernel work and higher-level automation and ground interfaces, enabling end-to-end verification of safety- and mission-critical systems. Justin pairs hands-on embedded design (MSP430, FreeRTOS, VxWorks) with practical tooling for CI and automated test, and holds advanced study in computer science from Science Tokyo and a BSE in Computer Engineering from the University of Michigan. An eye for system integration and timing characterization—demonstrated by integrating logic analyzers into CI—distinguishes his approach to robust firmware delivery.
