• Leveraged my deep technical expertise of robotics to justify the business value of a 0-1 shadow project and represented Indeed to external stakeholders, eventually guiding the decision to ramp down the project and proactively communicating to senior leadership to ensure the project was left in a state of readiness due to alignment with Indeed’s long term vision• Served as the sole product manager on Gigajob, a German job board site, and developed a comprehensive roadmap via market research and SQL based analysis of internal data to drive the product decisions while being mindful of the different cultural values and needs of the German job seeker• Drove valuable investments in infrastructure by highlighting low effort/high impact technical debt wins such as migrating to OneGraph, an initiative that ultimately increased the amount of started job applications by 4.8x on Gigajob• Identified SEO deficiencies caused by a low score in two Core Web Vitals across five job board products and organized an agile engineering effort across five cross-functional teams that directly led to a 2x increase in organic traffic for all websites• Maintained good Jira hygiene by creating information rich tickets and by organizing stories based on project priority

• Evaluated mechanical and solid state lidar platforms from Ouster, Benewake, and Velodyne for consistent range performance under varying temperature profiles via systematic experiments with a focus on weight constraints for unmanned aerial vehicles• Wrote generic IMU and GPS driver code in C++ that enabled real time pose generation for a developing quadrotor platform using Julia for verification• Prototyped a novel super resolution algorithm utilizing Python on an AWS EC2 instance to rapidly provide a proof of concept for the web applications team to productize• Incorporated the Pixhawk embedded hardware platform into an existing flight software stack from scratch with the MAVLink and MAVSDK API and C++ library• Championed the Scrum methodology of Agile development by creating bimonthly retrospectives during unforeseen remote work aimed at empathetically promoting cross functionality and accountability within a team working towards a minimally viable product

• Utilized the .NET framework to develop production grade UWP apps in C# for six degree of freedom robotic guided vision systems aimed at inline depalletizing and glass load applications for automotive assembly lines• Focused on both the front end development of the user experience and the back end development of original real time C#/C++ 3D vision algorithms and SQL database management• Created a novel disaster recovery method by fusing accelerometer, joint position, and 3D point cloud data to rapidly register a sensor• Designed communication protocols based on TC/ICP standards to be reused in KUKA, FANUC, and other 6 DOF robotic arms

• Led multidisciplinary team of five engineers to develop novel 3D sensor guiding mechanical, electrical, and software design efforts• Organized internal knowledge transfer seminars to teach fellow colleagues the common mathematics and algorithms of robotics such as multidimensional optimization, projective geometry, SLAM, and kinematics• Developed original real time C++ 3D vision algorithms for industrial automation in the automobile manufacturing industry• Produced Python scripts to statistically validate algorithm results and create compelling, presentation-ready figures for sales
