Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTomas Gareau is a software engineer with 11 years of experience bridging mechatronics, robotics, and embedded systems, currently based in Saskatoon and open to opportunities across Canada. He has led robotics teams developing perception and navigation algorithms for mixed autonomous ground and air fleets and guided architecture migrations from ROS to ROS2. Tomas pairs hands-on embedded and backend development—evidenced by his MQTT integration work for Locust performance testing—with practical systems thinking from SCADA and industrial automation roles. At Unmanned Life he combined technical leadership with program-level consulting on large research projects, and at Tenera he continues applying that multidisciplinary expertise to software and systems development. Known for turning complex, real-world constraints into reliable software, he brings a rare mix of field-tested robotics insight and backend tooling experience.
