Summary
Ankita Mukherjea is a Senior Software Engineer at NVIDIA with seven years of experience building perception, SLAM, and 3D reconstruction systems that bridge research and production. She has led end-to-end AV scene reconstruction and world-modeling pipelines using C++, Python, and NeRFs, and previously delivered FDA-cleared 3D visualization algorithms for surgical robotics. Her background blends biomedical engineering research in neural imaging with hands-on product engineering, giving her a rare perspective on signal processing, geometry, and machine learning. She excels at designing scalable software and data-driven pipelines that improve simulation fidelity and inject realistic edge cases for robust perception. Comfortable across the stack—from low-level C++ rendering and CI/CD to ML model architecture—she often operates at the intersection of graphics, perception, and generative AI for world modeling. Based in Pittsburgh, she pairs academic rigor from Carnegie Mellon with practical, cross-functional leadership in fast-moving engineering teams.
