Brooks Reed is a design engineer and control-systems specialist with 11 years of experience building autonomy and dynamic control for complex robotic systems, currently focused on control systems at American Magic in Berkeley. He helped scale Cruise’s autonomy stack from one of the first 20 engineer hires into a motion-planning organization, progressing from tech lead to senior engineering manager responsible for trajectory generation and controls. Brooks holds a PhD from MIT in Applied Ocean Science and Engineering and has deep domain experience in multi-vehicle coordination and networked control under constrained communications from work at MIT, WHOI, and early AUV projects. His background combining ocean robotics research, hands-on AUV payload design, and high-throughput autonomy engineering gives him a rare ability to translate rigorous research into production-grade motion and control systems.
