Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Mascarenhas is a Robotics Engineer with 11 years of professional experience and over 4 years focused on autonomous systems, control, and simulation for real-world robots. He has driven autonomy and navigation for the Flatfish AUV at Saipem, improving planning quality and system robustness to enable sustained 12 km offshore missions. Proficient in ROS/ROS2, C++, Python, simulation (Gazebo, Isaac Sim), and trajectory optimization (OMPL, MPC), he blends research-grade algorithms with production practices like CI, automated testing, and dockerized workflows. Earlier roles at Siemens Healthineers and in Germany gave him hands-on embedded and field-service experience, plus a knack for scripting and automation that reduced operational costs. Currently completing an M.Sc. in Mobile Robotics, he thrives on debugging hard-to-reproduce faults and hardening perception–planning interfaces for safety-critical applications. Comfortable in international, cross-functional teams, he aims to build reliable intelligent systems that perform under real environmental constraints.
