About

Robotics software engineer with ROS2 multi-robot experience spanning decentralized signal source localization (LoRa RSSI on TurtleBot3) and a master’s-thesis project on collaborative object transportation with 4 robots. Strong in sim-to-real debugging—implemented noise modeling (RBF) and practical hardware/coordination fixes (CoG tuning, clock sync/flags) to make algorithms work reliably on real robots.

Key Strengths

  • Designed and implemented ROS 2 multi-robot pipeline with minimal shared-state messaging (x,y,f + found flag)
  • Hands-on integration of LoRa RSSI sensing hardware with TurtleBot3 for indoor signal source localization
  • Bridged sim-to-real by modeling real sensor noise with an RBF approach (reported ~80% reduction in sensor sim-to-real gap)
  • Debugged real-world multi-robot transport issues via physical dynamics fixes (center-of-gravity/deadweight) and coordination flags/time synchronization
  • Built custom A* navigation package leveraging Vicon for mm-accuracy lab navigation/testing

Reference Highlights

Strongly Recommended
  • Strong coding skills
  • Able to independently develop and debug embedded/robotics software
  • Systematic, methodological debugging approach
  • Testing-driven and practical (validates on hardware, repeated trials)
  • Focuses on reducing latency and improving real-time performance
  • Careful with embedded resource management
  • Strong technical engagement in distributed robotics
  • Good understanding of distributed robotics fundamentals
