Planning and Controls Test Engineering for L2 & L3 autonomous vehicles

Greater Boston

Multi faceted role, where I participated in three main areas: CICD improvements, python software development and C++ software development.In C++ software development, I assisted in development of Lane-free path planning enabling our driverless vehicle to generate trajectories in unstructured environments such as passenger pick and drop-off locations.In simulation software I designed and implemented simulation scenarios to verify the new Lane-free path planning method using data collected from drive logs, to compare with existing failures in nominal planning.In CICD job role: I managed the PyTorch research software repository where new models for perception, prediction and planning were continuously built and then exported to TensorRT for the on-vehicle C++ stack.Integrated the bazel python toolchain into the PyTorch repository to fix dependency management, improve utilization of CICD test resources, and simplify new environment setup.In the python software development role, I implemented C++ python bindings, bringing the autonomous vehicle on-car stack to the PyTorch research repository such that ML teams can run experiments that better match the on-vehicle environment.

Led the design and implementation of the Cloud Console Control Center, which enabled scheduled deployments, release history, and full system rollbacks.Developed internal tooling for managing blue/green and A/B style deployments, resulting in a {30%} reduction in deployment time.Led the restructuring of the existing CloudFormation based tools to Terraform IAC to build blue/green deployments in place of manual system updates.

Member of a 6-person team responsible for the launch of the new platform for the Bioinformatics company Genometry. The platform is a pharmaceutical social media and research tool to enable collaboration between researchers in an effort to invent newer and more effective medications.Responsible for the full lifecycle, including backend python development and front end AngularJS and Bootstrap development.Responsible for all DevOps duties, including server installation (RHEL), building Python 2.76 on RHEL, building mod-wsgi, deployment scripts and weekly QA and Production deployments.The Genometry platform was constructed using Graph theory and Semantic Web techniques, by means of RDFLIB (Python API for the RDF Language), and JETTY (RDF Datastore)
