Summary
Mary Metelko is a System Architect with nine years of experience building resilient distributed cyber-physical systems, currently leading RIAPS-based development at Vanderbilt University. She blends systems-level thinking with hands-on embedded and signal-chain software design, maintaining Ubuntu images and integrating single-board computers like BeagleBone, Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano into smart-grid applications. Her expertise spans C/C++, Python, Qt, RF receiver simulation, wireless/video architectures, and standards engagement (VESA, IEEE 802.11/802.15), enabling cross-disciplinary teams to deliver complex optics-electronics-software solutions. Known for translating ambiguous requirements into practical architectures, she also brings uncommon depth in open-source embedded toolchains and low-power MSP430 development that bridges analog hardware demos with digital system design.
