Arun Das is a Principal Engineer and engineering manager with a decade of experience building AI/ML-driven mapping, localization, and autonomy systems for production vehicles and constrained embedded platforms. He led cross-functional teams at Bosch’s Silicon Valley unit to transition classical SLAM and localization pipelines to scalable, ML-first onboard map generation and large-scale auto-labeling for Level-4 programs, and now continues that trajectory at Applied Intuition. Trained as a PhD in Mechatronics, Robotics and Automation from the University of Waterloo, Arun combines deep nonlinear state-estimation expertise with hands-on embedded and FPGA experience from early-career roles. He bridges research and product—translating academic advances in multi-camera visual navigation into reliable, safety-focused systems—and is known for driving practical innovation in compute- and safety-constrained environments.
