Summary
Colin Moore is a PhD student and seasoned software developer with 11 years of experience focused on distributed systems, peer-to-peer architectures, and machine learning. Based at NC State’s RobotCodeLab, he blends academic research in federated ML with hands-on engineering from internships at ARA and Gilbarco Veeder-Root. He has led student robotics as president of the Aerial Robotics Club, translating systems-level thinking into practical, deployable solutions. Colin’s background in undergraduate research at the Institute for Advanced Analytics gives him a strong data-driven approach to problem solving. He’s comfortable spanning research and implementation—prototyping novel ML techniques while considering real-world constraints like networking and decentralization. Colleagues describe him as curious and pragmatic, often exploring unconventional intersections between robotics, distributed systems, and federated learning.
