About Prateek Gaddigoudar
I’m an Embedded Software Engineer who thrives at the intersection of real-time firmware and cutting-edge AI/ML. Over the past five years, I’ve delivered production-ready systems in both automotive and industrial electronics—designing C/C++ APIs that eliminated 70% of redundant test logic, bringing up high-voltage modules that doubled I/O capacity, and orchestrating 30+ agile sprints as Scrum Master while conducting 250+ code reviews to raise team quality and velocity.At Doble Engineering, I’ve leveraged GDB and Valgrind to squash 60+ critical bugs per release (cutting post-release escapes in half), used Wireshark and tcpdump to optimize IEC-61850 protocols in close partnership with hardware teams, and patched 20+ security vulnerabilities—driving our security-scan pass rate from 70% to 100%. Previously at Bosch, I resolved 350+ MISRA-C violations in a 150K-line ECU codebase and built 120+ diagnostic features for powertrain ECUs in embedded C and XML, earning recognition as the top-performing fresher among engineers.My passion for AI/ML began as an undergrad—publishing an paper on pedestrian detection and tracking via particle filtering — and deepened at Carnegie Mellon University, where I earned my M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering. In CMU’s BIG Lab, I developed deep-learning and graphical-model pipelines for ultrasound image segmentation and tracking, achieving 85% accuracy to guide surgical-robot control.I love collaborating across disciplines to turn data into decisions—whether that’s optimizing firmware pipelines, architecting vision systems, or scaling secure communications. If you’re tackling AI-driven embedded challenges or building autonomous platforms, let’s connect and create something impactful together.
