Who I Am
Day-to-day I build ROS 2 and DDS microservices for drone stacks – the data pipelines, the inter-node contracts, the business logic that ties a fleet together. On the side I work on the video and system-testing layer: headless simulators that actually run in CI, GStreamer pipelines that fail cleanly once a week, the next bug in a reproducer before it flies.
What I Work With
- Languages: C++23, Python
- Areas: ROS 2 and DDS microservices, data pipelines, video pipelines, headless simulation, system testing, CI for embedded
- Frameworks: ROS 2 (rclcpp, DDS, Fast-DDS), GStreamer, Gazebo, PX4 (on the integration side, not the controls side)
- Hardware: NVIDIA Jetson (Xavier, Orin), x86 CI runners
- Infrastructure: CMake, Docker, GitHub Actions, Linux
What I Care About
Correctness and performance where they meet the physical world. A type-safe API that compiles away to nothing. An integer predicate that returns the same answer on every compiler. A test that reproduces a field failure on the bench.
I’d rather spend a day getting the abstraction right than ship something that “works for now.”
