Hi, I'm Rudy Parra.

Electrical lab technician & embedded systems developer building clean-energy hardware.

I lead R&D across lithium-sulfur and vanadium redox flow battery systems at GridFlow, architect the full-stack energy platform behind Pii Energy's Edge 2000, and have published research in solar physics and glass physics. I like building things that bridge electrons, atoms, and code.
