Top SchoolKali Regenold is a software engineer with nine years of experience building embedded and robotics systems and production software across defense, research, and security-focused teams. Currently at the National Robotics Engineering Center in Pittsburgh, Kali brings hands-on expertise in embedded firmware, DevOps, and tooling integration from prior roles at L3Harris, Active Countermeasures, and Black Hills Information Security. They have practical experience improving open-source security tooling—contributing installer, configuration, and Zeek/MongoDB compatibility fixes to the RITA threat analytics project. Kali’s background managing university robotics, embedded systems, and 3D printing labs underscores a strong blend of mentoring, systems integration, and reproducible workflows. Comfortable moving between low-level embedded constraints and higher-level deployment automation, Kali reliably turns complex requirements into usable, well-documented solutions. Their work often surfaces in operational improvements rather than headline features, reflecting a pragmatic focus on stability and maintainability.
