About
Robotics engineer/team lead who built an autonomous lunar rover for the NASA Lunabotics challenge, owning electrical systems, comms (UART/WiFi), and autonomy using RealSense + custom YOLO on a Jetson Orin Nano. Also has extensive ROS 2 experience, including creating a ROS2+Gazebo environment with ros2_control custom controllers for a large-scale additive manufacturing printer and research/thesis work in multi-robot coordination and robustness.
Experience
Education
Key Strengths
- Led autonomous lunar rover project (NASA Lunabotics) as team lead
- End-to-end robotics architecture ownership (hardware selection + software architecture + implementation)
- Deployed custom YOLO perception on Jetson with RealSense for obstacle/crater detection
- Deep ROS 2 experience across real robot and simulation (Gazebo, ros2_control, RViz2, MoveIt2)
- Diagnosed sim-to-real issues by inspecting ROS topics/telemetry and tracing latency bottlenecks
- Improved real-time behavior by switching to an ultra-low-latency ROS 2 video streaming solution
- Multi-robot coordination work (collision avoidance, handling robot failure via replacement robot)
- Built custom ROS 2 + Gazebo environment and controllers for large-scale additive manufacturing printer
