About

Robotics software engineer at Earthwise building a full ROS2 Humble warehouse AMR stack for bin picking—owning perception (Livox/Orbbec/RPLidar fusion + calibration), Nav2 navigation with custom planners/behavior trees, and application-layer nodes (barcode scanning, safety monitoring, web HMI). Demonstrated strong real-world debugging and performance tuning (sub-cm AprilTag docking; ~80% reduction in localization failures) plus solid simulation/CI practices (Gazebo + Docker + GitHub Actions).

Key Strengths

  • Built end-to-end ROS2 AMR navigation + perception stack from scratch
  • Deep Nav2 customization (behavior trees, custom local/global planners)
  • High-accuracy AprilTag-based docking (sub-centimeter at 2–3 meters) via systematic debugging and validation
  • Methodical debugging using rosbag replay and rviz2 to isolate issues without hardware
  • Improved localization robustness by tuning AMCL and optimizing point-cloud pipeline (reduced failures ~80%)
  • Strong distributed robotics networking (VLAN segmentation, DDS QoS prioritization for safety-critical streams)
  • Simulation-first development with Gazebo (custom plugins) to validate workflows pre-deployment
  • Production-minded deployment practices (Dockerized ROS2 workspaces, GitHub Actions CI with sim-based integration tests)
