About

Robotics software engineer who led an autonomous nursery management robot project at Auburn University, spanning RGB-D/IMU sensor fusion, SLAM navigation, and real-time ML for plant detection/quality assessment. Strong ROS1/ROS2 background (C++/Python) with deployment on NVIDIA Jetson, including profiling-driven optimization of YOLO segmentation for real-time behavior and multi-robot (UGV/UAV) communication using ROS2.

Key Strengths

  • Led end-to-end autonomous robotics project (perception, navigation/control, data/training, deployment)
  • Deep ROS1/ROS2 integration experience (custom nodes, launch files, custom messages, logging/diagnostics)
  • Real-time performance optimization on embedded hardware (Jetson) using profiling, pruning, and comms latency reduction
  • Simulation-to-field deployment workflow (Gazebo/virtual testing to real-world trials)
  • Distributed/heterogeneous robot communication design (UGV/UAV coordination via ROS2 topics/services/actions)
