Lilette Salini

“Worked on Sophia the humanoid robot, building production animation pipelines and enhancing human-robot interaction via perception and behavior orchestration. Experienced in stabilizing noisy perception-driven state transitions and designing smooth, user-centered behavioral flows, collaborating closely with artists, animators, and experience designers to translate creative intent into measurable system behavior.”

“Backend engineer who has built end-to-end data and platform systems across domains: a Scala/Java media data warehouse with a custom query language and Elasticsearch search, plus production security patterns (RBAC, RLS, audit trails) including a telehealth platform. Also demonstrated strong operational rigor by using feature-flagged side-by-side migrations and by catching ecommerce checkout edge cases that were dropping revenue.”
