About

Robotics software engineer who built an end-to-end mobile manipulation platform (Franka Panda on a Clearpath Ridgeback) for a simulated-kitchen human-robot interaction study with natural speech commands, implemented in Python/ROS. Has hands-on experience integrating diverse sensors (RealSense, LiDAR, biosignals) with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face) and fine-tuning GPT-Neo, plus simulation (Gazebo) and modern deployment practices (Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD).

Key Strengths

  • End-to-end ownership of robotics systems (design, development, integration, execution)
  • Cross-platform robot integration (arm + mobile base working in unison)
  • Pragmatic real-time troubleshooting under pressure (kept data collection running via backup PC)
  • Resourceful HRI audio pipeline design (single-process mic recording + transcription via ROS topic)
  • Strong multi-sensor + ML/LLM integration in ROS/ROS2 (PyTorch, Hugging Face, GPT-Neo)
