About

Robotics software engineer/research lead building an off-road mobile base, owning system integration across mechanical/electrical/embedded and developing controls + motion planning deployed from simulation to hardware with ROS 2/ROS 2 Control. Has deep ROS 2 experience (NAV2, MoveIt) and built a GridMap-based off-road elevation-to-traversability mapping stack using nonlinear optimization; also tuned real robots using Vicon and developed a quadcopter geometric/PID controller.

Experience

University of Pennsylvania - School of Engineering and Applied Sciencebachelor, Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics (2025)

Key Strengths

  • Led end-to-end off-road mobile robot R&D integrating mechanical, electrical, embedded, and software subsystems
  • Debugged simulation instability by identifying and correcting a Jacobian error
  • Simulation-to-real deployment of controllers using ROS 2 / ROS 2 Control
  • Real-world controller tuning using Vicon; reduced oscillations to achieve stable behavior through iterative parameter tuning
  • Built ROS 2 package for off-road mapping (GridMap-based elevation maps to traversability maps using nonlinear optimization)
  • Performance-focused ROS 2 development using multithreaded executors and C++ components
  • Hands-on quadcopter control optimization with systematic PID/PD/I tuning for fast response without oscillation
