Bruno Bolsens is the Senior Staff in Robotics Firmware at Tesla, where he is currently pushing the boundaries of automation and factory operations in California and Nevada.

Before Tesla, Bruno co-founded Snox Engineering Group, where he played an important role in developing advanced navigation and guidance systems. His work not only propelled Snox’s technology forward but also led to a high-profile collaboration with KUKA Roboter on an all-electric vehicle project. With Bruno as a leader, Snox expanded its range of vehicles across various industries. The company's success led to its acquisition by Grenzebach Maschinenbau in 2013, where Bruno continued to innovate as CTO, developing award-winning warehouse robots.

Prior to his roles, Bruno earned a Master’s and PhD in Engineering Sciences from KU Leuven, his academic foundation equipped him for a succesful career marked by big achievements. A former Big Pi Venture Partner, Bruno’s venture capital experience complements his entrepreneurial proficiency. His frequent visits to Greece have deepened his interest in the Greek economy, while his ongoing connections to the Greek startup scene has kept him actively engaged with the local entrepreneurs. The Bay Area further connected him with the Greek diaspora, enriching his goal to bridge the tech landscapes between the U.S. and Greece.
