Tom Jacobs

Robotics Engineer & Software Developer

I'm a robotics engineer and software developer. My work spans hardware and software, from developing robots to video streaming software. I write C, C++, Python, and JavaScript.

My background includes mobile app development, having created the Expensify apps and built a network of one million peer-to-peer clients at Red Swoosh. I've also completing courses in Machine Learning and Self-Driving Car Engineering, which have helped me build internet-connected robots and autonomous systems.

Beyond technical work, I've founded an ecommerce consumer electronics business and co-founded an analytics company. I enjoy sharing knowledge through writing, with articles published on TechCrunch.

Currently I'm working on a new startup, Deskman, an interactive voice robot head. Here's a demo and me talking about it.
