Software engineer building production systems at the intersection of data, computer vision, and real-world measurement.

Operator Profile

About

NameRob EgelandRoleSoftware EngineerCurrent FocusAnalytical & Vision SystemsLocationChicago, IL

I design and build production software that connects physical measurements to reliable, repeatable digital analysis. My work sits at the intersection of software engineering, instrumentation, and real-world systems.

I'm particularly drawn to problems where correctness, calibration, and traceability matter — environments where software must perform consistently across operators, hardware, and time.

Outside of work, my interests in cars and music continue to shape how I think about systems, feedback, and performance — both technically and creatively.

Current Inputs

Research & Reading

I approach learning as an ongoing system rather than a series of isolated efforts. My current inputs span formal education, structured self-study, and long-form technical reading — all of which directly inform how I design and reason about software systems.
