Building the
Autonomous Future
Software Engineering Coordinator at LA2 Dynamics. Building quadruped robots with MPC and Reinforcement Learning. 4x International Competition Winner (Roboboat, Singapore AUV).
About Me
I'm a Robotics Engineer and Software Developer driven by the challenge of creating intelligent, autonomous systems. My focus is on building robust software and integrating complex hardware to bring advanced robotic capabilities to life.
Currently, at LA2 Dynamics, I coordinate software development efforts, concentrating on enhancing the locomotion, perception, and overall intelligence of quadruped robots through well-architected software solutions.
Previously, leading the ITU AUV Team provided invaluable experience in managing technical projects and fostering collaboration, culminating in international competition victories. I also founded Poly Design 3D, creating tools for 3D artists.
