Summary
Tolga Uzun is a software engineer based in New York with a multidisciplinary 12+ year background in robotics, mechatronics, and embedded systems, focused on building assistive robotic devices and smart machines. He has led end-to-end product development at a medical robotics startup—designing system architectures, PCBs, embedded firmware, desktop UIs and backend data servers—while also guiding CE certification efforts for medical safety and EMC. Comfortable across C++, C#, Linux, Windows, ARM microcontrollers, CAN/RS485, EtherCAT and motion control, he blends hardware design and low-level software with system-level product thinking. Tolga also set up and ran company IT infrastructure and aftersales workflows, showing operational discipline beyond pure engineering. His academic mix of mechanical engineering and an MS in information technology complements a practical, hands-on approach to turning research prototypes into certified products. He’s motivated by robotics that improve lives and brings rare full-stack robotics experience from electronics to clinical regulatory work.
