About

Wilkommen. Bienvenue. Welcome. I am a software engineer building robust data and logging infrastructure for autonomous vehicles. My work focuses on creating reliable systems that collect, process, and analyze data. I am deeply interested in autonomous systems and the infrastructure that powers them.

Professional Highlights

  • Built a pipeline for handling process crashes and coredumps.
  • Developed software to collect and index data from vehicle and operations.
  • Created diagnostics and tooling to address on-vehicle data storage issues.
  • Daemonized on-vehicle logging for continuous data capture.
  • Built metadata processing tools and dashboards for observability.
  • Built CLIs and GUI sub-components for daily logging operations.
  • Designed systems for logging operations in remote environments with limited internet access.
  • Developed the communication interface, hardware abstraction, control logic and diagnostics components for the EUV light source.

Interests

My professional work is deeply connected to my long-standing interests in machine learning and robotics. I’m fascinated by the entire stack that makes intelligent systems possible, from low-level data collection to computer vision. In the past I have focused on areas such as decentralized and federated learning, continual learning, model calibration and explainability. Today I build scalable infrastructure to support autonomous vehicles.

Other than machine learning

I hike, read books and watch movies. Here and there I also take online courses to learn things that I am interested in.

Books and movies are an indispensable part of my life. Although they are never up-to-date, you could check out my Letterboxd and Goodreads accounts, if you want to see what I have been upto. Here is a link to my Spotify account as well. I love books where history, economics, finance, statistics and probability are interwoven. Perhaps some day I will write a post on this topic.

Fun fact: I used to play bass guitar in an 80s cover band in high school. We mostly played hard-rock.
