Summary
Ankit Manerikar is an AI Algorithm Engineer with a PhD from Purdue and a decade of experience applying computer vision, machine learning, and robotics to real-world security and automation problems. Currently at Intel, he transitioned from deep learning SWE intern work to building production-capable AI algorithms informed by prior academic projects on X-ray/CT threat detection, synthetic CT data generation, and one-shot segmentation with StyleGAN. His background blends rigorous research (several authored frameworks and a CT simulator) with embedded and robotics engineering, from ROS motion planners to sensor firmware and HMM-based wearables. Based in Hillsboro, Oregon, he brings a rare combination of simulation-to-hardware experience and a track record of turning advanced ML research into practical systems.
