Joshua Hrisko, PhD | Principal Engineer

Joshua Hrisko has worked with technology companies, taught in universities, and has experience with hardware and software development, embedded electronics, digital signal processing, fluid dynamics and heat transfer, remote sensing, data analysis, machine learning, web development, and mobile app development. He is proficient with the following software tools: Python, Arduino, MATLAB, CAD (FreeCAD, SolidWorks, AutoCAD), ANSYS Fluent, Swift, C++, Java, HTML+CSS. He is also experienced with hardware tools: inertial measurement units (accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers), pressure transducers (gauge, differential, acoustic), temperature sensors (thermocouples, thermistors, infrared), wireless modules (Bluetooth, LoRa, WiFi), weighing sensors (load cells, strain gauges, FSRs), motors (servos, steppers, fans), and light detectors (LiDAR, photodiodes).

He has also participated and presented his work at scientific conferences: Acoustical Society of America, American Geophysical Union, International Congress on Urban Climate, American Meteorological Society.

He has developed data analysis software for companies such as: Idaho National Laboratory, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Applied Research Laboratory, Tialinx, Inc., WaWiCo.

Recently, he was part of the team that published an educational Arduino-based iOS mobile application, BLExAR, aimed to help young engineers engage with Arduino and engineering at the maker level.
