As a dedicated Robotics Software Developer, I blend a passion for solving complex problems with a solid foundation in robotics engineering and software. With about 4+ of hands-on experience in designing, developing, and deploying robotic systems, I have honed my skills in Vision systems, Sensor Fusion, perception with Robotics Frameworks, like R.O.S or custom framework, and Control Systems. I thrive in environments that challenge the status quo and require innovative thinking. I am constantly exploring new technologies that enhance machine perception and autonomy, aiming to create robotic solutions that are not only efficient but also adaptive and scalable. Let's connect to shape the future of robotics together.

Actively looking for an opportunity because of a reduction in force at Phantom Auto.
