Summary
Rishi Nath is a software engineer based in San Francisco with eight years of experience building firmware and full-stack software for consumer energy products. Currently at Tesla, he moved from intern roles to a full-time position developing firmware and software for Tesla Energy residential devices, with prior work that now runs autonomously on millions of units. He has strong academic foundations from UC Berkeley (BS EECS, minor in Math, 3.8 GPA) and hands-on research experience automating metrics and uptime reporting for human learning studies. Rishi also taught parts of CS61a, demonstrating an ability to explain core CS concepts like algorithms and recursion to large student cohorts. Comfortable working close to hardware, he’s delivered hardware-in-the-loop test suites and production firmware that emphasize performance and reliability. Less obvious: he combines classroom teaching experience with production firmware delivery, which helps him bridge complex technical design and clear communication across teams.
