About

Robotics software engineer who built a lightweight, ROS-free distributed control and telemetry stack for a Caltrans long-range culvert inspection robot. Strong in integrating heterogeneous hardware (UART motor controllers, Ethernet sensors, MJPEG cameras) and delivering real-time operator data via FastAPI/WebSockets, including reverse-engineering undocumented protocols and debugging network-induced latency with control-loop redesign.

Key Strengths

  • Designed distributed control/telemetry architecture for long-range (300ft) wireless culvert inspection robot
  • Built real-time FastAPI/WebSocket service streaming motor stats, servo telemetry, camera frames, and network diagnostics
  • Reverse-engineered undocumented motor controller protocol from raw UART bytes via controlled command/response logging
  • Improved robustness with packet validation (header/length) to discard noisy/invalid telemetry
  • Diagnosed intermittent latency using stage-by-stage timestamping and redesigned command pipeline to fixed-rate loop with stale-command dropping
  • Integrated heterogeneous subsystems (UART motor controller, Ethernet HoverMap sensor, MJPEG cameras, wireless mesh operator tablet) via normalized Pydantic message schemas
  • Created a Python UART-response simulator to test backend without hardware; used Docker for consistent dev/prod on Raspberry Pi and GitHub Actions for CI
