San Francisco Bay Area Autonomy software systems engineering. I lead system wide initiatives involving localization, perception, prediction & planning, introducing new algorithms, science, or changing architecture. I've spent a significant amount of time collaborating with a research team producing DNN's and integrating them for end-to-end product capabilities. Ultimately I love deeply understanding the product goals and driving system wide initiatives in service of those goals.
