Robert Ellwanger is an Automation Test and System Engineer with 11 years of experience, currently advancing test automation and secure pipelines at NVIDIA after roles at Dell EMC. Trained in Electrical and Computer Engineering (NC State) and pursuing a CS master’s at UIUC, he blends embedded systems, networking, and software automation to diagnose hardware and test failures at scale. He has a track record of practical engineering savings—migrating PLC and HMI code and building Raspberry Pi-based monitoring to cut costs and improve visibility. Comfortable across startup-to-enterprise environments, he designs end-to-end solutions from Django web apps to hardware-integrated QA tools. Known for a curious, Feynman-inspired approach to learning, he seeks continuous growth through discovery and invention. Based in Austin, he pairs hands-on troubleshooting with a focus on secure, automatable systems that reduce manual triage.
