About Salvatorre

We design and build the whole solution, across hardware and software.

Salvatorre is a technology company and design house. Bring us a problem and you get a working solution and a partner who keeps it running, not a project to manage. We build products of our own, too.

A design house and product partner

Salvatorre is a technology company. For client work we operate like a design house, closer to an ODM, an original design manufacturer: you bring a problem in your line of work, and we design and build the complete solution, then stand behind it.

You get an outcome, not a maintenance burden. Your solution stays supported, supplied, and improving, and we are a product partner, not a one-and-done shop. When a job needs more hands, we scale with a trusted network of engineers and our own AI tooling.

The founder

Sal Torre

Salvatorre was founded by Sal Torre, an electrical engineer who has spent 15+ years building the systems other people depend on, turning hard problems into working hardware and software.

Born and raised in Tampa Bay, Sal earned bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Florida, where he helped design SwampSat, UF's first satellite. He spent three years in supplier quality at Lockheed Martin, then a decade at American Traction Solutions developing the motor controllers and power converters behind Disney monorails, the Alcatraz ferry, NASA's NEAT program, Buffalo streetcars, the Army's TARDEC program, and the record-breaking Buckeye Bullet 3.

He founded Salvatorre in 2022 to build complete solutions end to end. He is also a partner and engineer at Spoores, building IoT products, and has served on FGCU's Software Engineering Industry Advisory Board since 2019, mentoring more than 50 engineers.
