About

Robotics software engineer focused on state estimation and localization reliability, with deep hands-on EKF tuning/validation using DGPS ground truth and integrity-risk-based uncertainty calibration. Built middleware-agnostic interfaces with ROS wrappers to enable repeatable ROS bag playback testing, and implemented CI at Caterpillar to automatically build the localization stack and run unit tests plus bag-based regressions before merge.

Key Strengths

  • Improved EKF reliability by calibrating uncertainty vs integrity risk using real-world data
  • Hands-on EKF debugging and Q/R tuning validated against DGPS ground truth
  • Production-minded implementation: C++ standards adherence and unit test coverage
  • Built middleware-agnostic functions with ROS wrappers to enable ROS bag playback validation
  • Established CI pipelines (GitHub Actions/Jenkins) running unit tests and ROS bag playbacks pre-merge
  • Core-team experience standardizing ROS-style message interfaces for multi-team/robot reuse
