About
Robotics software/perception engineer with production AMR experience at Symbotic, building a real-time SKU case re-identification pipeline used in high-volume Walmart/Target warehouse operations. Strong in ROS2 + Docker deployments on Jetson (TensorRT quantization) and system-level performance debugging, including cutting inference latency from ~13s to ~2s through architecture changes. Also has lab experience integrating SLAM/MPPI/behavior trees for rule-compliant navigation and distributed perception-to-UR5e manipulation systems (MoveIt/ros_control) with multi-camera sensing and 3D reconstruction.

Key Strengths
End-to-end ownership of production robotics perception (model to on-robot deployment)
Large-scale visual re-identification for 20,000+ SKUs under occlusion/variable lighting
System-level performance debugging (camera-to-inference profiling) and architecture optimization
Major latency reduction via container consolidation, multithreading, and embedding caching (reported ~70% reduction; 13s to ~2s inference)
Deep ROS1/ROS2 integration across perception, planning, and manipulation stacks
