Mid-level trader and researcher specializing in systematic trading and asset management
Ibrahim Kurban Ozaslan
Junior Robotics & Controls Researcher specializing in optimization, MPC, and reinforcement learning
“Robotics software candidate who designed and implemented a hierarchical motion-planning and whole-body control pipeline for a 37-state Spot robot to traverse complex terrain, using Graph of Convex Sets for safe footstep selection plus optimization-based IK and nonlinear trajectory optimization for joint trajectories/contact forces. Strong in optimization-heavy robotics workflows (PyDrake, MATLAB/Simulink) and methodical debugging down to signal-level and numerical stability; has not used ROS/ROS2 yet.”
Hao Zhang
Junior Robotics Software Engineer specializing in ROS, embedded control, and SLAM
“UCLA RoMeLa research assistant (since Oct 2025) building an embedded control and sensor-data platform for multi-robot coordination in a simulated warehouse. Deep hands-on experience with ROS on NVIDIA Jetson under RTOS constraints, secure MQTT/TLS telemetry, and SLAM performance optimization (including ORB-SLAM3) validated in Gazebo and deployed via Docker/Kubernetes and CI/CD.”
Tejal Shetty
Junior Robotics & Computer Vision Engineer specializing in simulation and embedded systems
“Robotics software contributor with hands-on experience building a Gazebo/ROS(2) Mars rover simulation integrating LiDAR and image segmentation for autonomous navigation and SLAM (Nav2). Comfortable debugging low-level sim/model integration issues (URDF/XML) and building sensor-data pipelines, and has also shipped a real-world telemetry setup streaming vibration data over UDP with packet-loss mitigation.”
Oren Rosenberg
Mid-level IP attorney specializing in patent and trademark law
“Patent attorney with a biomedical engineering background seeking to transition into investing/scouting for emerging technology startups. Brings strong IP analysis, technical fluency, and a demonstrated ability to build professional networks from scratch, including creating new employer partnerships and launching a recurring multi-employer networking event in law school.”
Zaid Kamil
Mid-level XR Software Engineer specializing in real-time AR/VR digital twins
“Built and owned an end-to-end real-time IoT telemetry backend that powers a digital twin experience on a Meta Quest headset, integrating Cisco LoRaWAN sensors and external REST data sources. Migrated from Azure Functions to a FastAPI service to overcome firewall constraints, add caching/fallback reliability, and significantly reduce operating cost while improving performance and evolvability.”
