Joshua Turner is an embedded software engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building low-level control systems for robotics and surgical training devices. Currently at a stealth startup and previously a research contributor at Vanderbilt, he specializes in integrating real-time embedded control with higher-level ROS frameworks and system-level communication for dual-arm haptic and micro-macro robotic platforms. He pairs a Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science background from Vanderbilt with practical skills in Rust and mentorship experience from FRC team Reboot #4080, bringing both hardware fluency and software rigor to multidisciplinary teams. Known for bridging CAD/fabrication, calibration, and control software, he thrives on turning prototyped concepts into reliable, testable systems for human-in-the-loop applications.
