Summary
Kevin Gucwa is a Senior Systems Integration Engineer with 11 years of experience blending DevOps practices and autonomous systems engineering to accelerate testing and deployment workflows. Based in Belmont, CA, he has progressed from research at UC Davis to hands-on roles at Lucid Motors, Mayfield Robotics, and Bosch, where he now focuses on integrating complex software and hardware stacks. Kevin’s background as a PhD-trained mechanical engineer gives him a strong systems-thinking lens that he applies to CI/CD, test automation, and vehicle autonomy toolchains. He’s comfortable bridging lab research and production engineering, often translating experimental autonomy work into repeatable, auditable processes for cross-functional teams. An unexpected strength is his decade-long mix of academic research and industry delivery, which helps him anticipate integration pitfalls before they reach late-stage testing.
