Work Experience & Leadership
Lead Robotics & Software Engineer
- Led HMI & software stack for autonomous ground and aerial fleets: ground control stations, teleoperation consoles, and interactive mission planners (12 field-deployed devices).
- Architected GA-MSG: ZeroMQ/gRPC pub-sub middleware (lightweight ROS replacement) with C++/Python bindings and zero-copy shared-memory transport achieving sub-80 µs latency.
- Bridged GA-MSG to MAVLink drones over Doodle Labs mesh radio with bidirectional translation, heartbeat handling, and link-loss failover.
- Engineered low-latency mesh video streaming with GStreamer/WebRTC/LiveKit/RTSP and RSSI/packet-loss adaptive bitrate under degraded link conditions.
- Shipped teleoperation stack: bimanual 6-DOF arm and dexterous-hand retargeting with force-feedback gripper (pyroki, FK/IK, mocap).
- Wrote bionic-actuator firmware (EtherCAT/CAN) for high-frequency motor control loops at 200 Hz with PI/PD and hybrid Kp-Kd control.
- Architected secure end-to-end OTA update pipeline: cross-architecture AppImages with GCP Cloud Run proxy and per-device Firestore key validation.
- Designed full-stack fleet orchestration dashboard (Next.js + FastAPI) with WebSockets, LiveKit, and WebTransport WebGPU point-cloud rendering (800K+ points at 144 FPS).
Software Developer
- Architected and deployed scalable, high-throughput backend services (Python/FastAPI) and RESTful APIs, driving end-to-end data models, domain logic, and third-party integrations.
- Cut API latency by 30% through systematic query restructuring, strategic indexing, and multi-tier caching across critical path endpoints.
- Elevated system throughput by 16% by refactoring blocking operations into asynchronous worker pipelines under heavy production load.
Software Developer (Star Performer Q3)
Star Performer- Engineered Server-Side Rendering (SSR) for high-traffic core pages (Next.js/Node.js), optimizing Core Web Vitals (Largest Contentful Paint LCP and Time to Interactive TTI).
- Architected high-concurrency Node.js API microservices maintaining sub-millisecond reliability during peak exam-season traffic surges as primary Release Owner.
- Awarded Star-Performer Award Q3 for technical excellence and zero-downtime release leadership.
Software Developer Intern
- Built a real-time model validation and visualization service, accelerating end-to-end model development and deployment lifecycle from days to seconds.
- Automated continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) pipelines on AWS, reducing manual deployment overhead.
