About

Robotics software engineer focused on low-compute navigation/SLAM: built a 6-DOF SLAM validation pipeline (IMU + 2D LiDAR + ultrasonic) producing ~1cm OctoMap accuracy and deployed it on an Intel Atom by optimizing particle-filter SLAM with a greedy max-likelihood update. Deep ROS 2 experience (executors, composable/lifecycle nodes, QoS, timestamping) plus simulation and deployment tooling (Gazebo C++ plugins, Docker, CI/CD, ROS 2 build farm) and drone navigation work with MAVROS/PX4.

Key Strengths

  • Designed low-compute SLAM pipeline deployed on Intel Atom
  • Optimized particle-filter SLAM via greedy max-likelihood map update (scaled particles 10→100)
  • Multi-threaded ROS 2 architecture using executors + composable nodes + intra-process comms
  • QoS and timestamp alignment fixes that improved real-time behavior (planner latency reduced ~30%)
  • Strong ROS 1/ROS 2 navigation stack experience (move_base, Nav2, DWA tuning)
  • Built Gazebo C++ plugins to simulate sensors and arm motion planning before hardware integration
  • Containerized ROS 2 stacks and set up CI/CD (GitHub Actions, build farm compatibility, rosdep checks)
  • Multi-robot/distributed ROS 2 communication design (namespaces, remapping, DDS tuning)
