I'm a robotics engineer and applied scientist working at The AI Institute, focusing on task and motion planning with learned skills for long-horizon, contact rich manipulation tasks.
Previously, I was at:
- (2022-2024) PickNik Robotics working on MoveIt Pro for robot behavior and planning in ROS 2. I still help out as a MoveIt maintainer.
- (2021-2022) Boston Dynamics working on behaviors for the Stretch warehouse robot.
- (2020-2021) The Robust Robotics Group at MIT CSAIL, as a research software engineer.
- (2017-2019) MathWorks, where I supported student competitions such as RoboCup and made robotics educational content with MATLAB and Simulink.
On my spare time, I like to teach things related to robotics, AI, and software development. Learn more at https://roboticseabass.com/.
