Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDevansh Agrawal is a Senior Flight Software Engineer with eight years of experience building safety-critical autonomy and avionics, currently helping Rotor Technologies develop the next generation of civilian helicopters. He holds a PhD in Robotics from the University of Michigan where his thesis produced provable, end-to-end architectures for safe autonomy—work validated in simulation and hardware and released as open source. Devansh blends deep theoretical contributions (gatekeeper architectures, certifiable perception, and Lipschitz-continuous controllers for CBF-QPs) with hands-on engineering across embedded systems and front-end UI work, including notable JavaScript/jQuery contributions to the Materialize CSS framework. A natural leader and founder-type, he previously led a large university drone society and has an unusually broad early-career footprint spanning academic publications (including first-author work in Nature Biomedical Engineering), industry research at Dyson, and robotics field experiments. Based in Nashua, NH, he is drawn to high-impact, multidisciplinary problems that require provable guarantees and practical deployment.
