Senior🎓
Top SchoolTanner Poling is an Embedded Software Engineer with eight years' experience building and integrating robotics and ocean-going systems, currently focused on hardware-software convergence at Redwood Materials. He has led technical design and verification for next-generation ocean science platforms, authored C++ device drivers and middleware, and implemented data-quality tooling in Python for unmanned vehicles. His background spans field operations — deploying AUVs and troubleshooting at sea in the Pacific and Arctic — through lab R&D, giving him practical insight into reliability under harsh conditions. Notably, he led a root-cause investigation that reduced catastrophic customer data loss by hardening vehicle CAN bus interactions and automating safeguards. Comfortable across embedded Linux, QNX, CAN/UART/TCP stacks, and sensor integration, he thrives in fast-paced interdisciplinary teams where ownership and impact matter. Outside work he’s a committed ocean enthusiast, which informs his drive to develop technologies that help steward the planet.
