Robotics Engineer | M.Eng. Robotics Student at University of Maryland
I am a Robotics Engineer at Optimax Systems, Inc. and a graduate student pursuing a Master of Engineering in Robotics at the University of Maryland (expected December 2026). I graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering in 2023.
I specialize in robotics automation, embedded systems, and control systems development. My current work involves developing ROS-based solutions, programming Beckhoff PLCs and ABB industrial robots using C++, Python, and Structured Text. I lead project management initiatives including unit testing frameworks (TcUnit, Google Test), code organization, and new feature development for manufacturing automation.
I am seeking remote or hybrid (Boston area) opportunities in Robotics, Embedded Systems, or Software Engineering where I can apply my expertise in automated systems, motion planning, and robotic control.
