About

Robotics software engineer with hands-on experience building an AGV for warehouse autonomy at Kick Robotics, working across SLAM, waypoint navigation, computer vision, and ROS2/RViz simulation. Demonstrated strong on-site troubleshooting by diagnosing a real-world mapping stall via log analysis (coordinate reset bug) and deploying a fix. Also has industrial automation experience coordinating SCARA robots via EtherNet/IP and multi-robot/swarm simulations using MQTT pub-sub.

Key Strengths

  • End-to-end robotics software development (SLAM, navigation, vision) on ROS1/ROS2
  • Systematic real-world debugging (identified coordinate reset to (0,0) via logs; fixed mapping logic)
  • Robotics architecture integration (main node coordinating SLAM/vision/IMU into motion + planned-path nodes)
  • Cross-domain robot communications (EtherNet/IP for industrial robots; MQTT pub-sub for multi-robot coordination)
  • Simulation-driven testing using Gazebo with modeled environments and motors
  • Practical deployment practices (Docker containerization; GitHub CI checks for build/formatting)
