I'm a robotics engineer with over five years of R&D experience, currently based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. I work at the meeting point of hardware and AI: mechanical and electrical systems, Python and C#, ROS 2, and deep learning models that see and decide.
Today I'm a Senior Engineer at ACE Solutions, building AI-based applications for Universal Robots cobots and MiR mobile robots in factories and hospitals, from vision-guided pick-and-place to sim-to-real demos in NVIDIA Isaac Sim.
Before that I built software to automate factory assembly lines: a single interface to drive five brands of industrial robots, and an autonomous pick-and-place robot that combines a mobile base, a collaborative arm, and a depth camera.
Earlier, I did research on computer vision for non-contact heart-rate measurement, and spent three years leading a robotics R&D team at an ed-tech company, where I taught robotics to thousands of students and mentored a community of young roboticists.
I was born in Odisha, India. My parents are teachers and my brother is an architect.
