Senior🎓
Top SchoolGlenn Bitar is a technical lead and cybernetics PhD with 11 years of experience designing autonomous systems, control algorithms, and scalable data-driven software. He combines hands-on robotics work—from low-level vehicle and vessel control to autonomy engines and simulation—with production-grade software architecture and networked applications. Recent roles span research on collision avoidance and rendezvous for uncrewed surface vessels to building performant analytics APIs and owning end-to-end data ingestion and governance. Skilled in C++, Rust, Python, ROS, and systems engineering, he bridges academic rigor with pragmatic deployment and CI/CD practices. Based in Norway, he’s equally comfortable crafting control theory for ferries and shaping data platforms for media, reflecting a rare blend of deep research expertise and delivery-focused engineering.
