Summary
Ryan Bartling is a Staff Firmware Engineer with a decade of experience blending software development and precision electrical engineering, now driving firmware work at Axon. He began his career in the Air Force research lab, where he built sensitive measurement systems and wrote production software—skills he later applied to hardware design and EMC automation at Microchip and LiveWire. Ryan has a track record of converting analog techniques to digital implementations, inventing sensors and filters that cut cost and size while improving signal fidelity, and he champions Test Driven Development to raise firmware quality. Comfortable moving between low-level embedded firmware, hardware design, and automation, he brings a research-informed rigor and a practical knack for prototyping novel sensors and measurement tools. Colleagues rely on him for precise, efficient solutions that balance manufacturability with tight performance constraints.
