      Work focus - Navigation, control and hydrodynamics of autonomous underwater vehicles. Project - Hydrus (https://www.advancednavigation.com/robotics/micro-auv/hydrus/) As a robotics engineer, I: - Researched and developed autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) hydrodynamics simulation and controls. The outcomes from this work drove some of the mechanical and systems-engineering design decisions during the prototyping phase. - Implemented an autopilot system on embedded hardware with a scalable and reusable architecture. This system included mission command-and-control stack and navigation/guidance software. - Took part in the development of firmware to control thrusters using ESC (Electronic Speed Control) motors. - Conducted repeatable tests on prototype AUVs with outcomes validating simulation results. - Shipped simulation demos to customers and stakeholders. - Participated in activities involving soft-launch of the AUV product. - Mentored junior software engineers through various phases of software development lifecycle. Languages/frameworks/architectures - C/C++, Python, ROS (v1 and v2), Gazebo, OpenProp. Show less
