Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGriswald Brooks is a robotics engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience designing perception, estimation, and navigation systems for commercial robot fleets. He has driven production-grade improvements—from refactoring navigation stacks and removing ROS dependencies to scaling fleet navigation from 50 to 350 robots—while solving subtle field faults like costmap race conditions and trajectory critics. His background spans LIDAR-based tracking and EKF design, SLAM familiarity, controller and planner development, and practical machine learning for labeling and detection. At Bossa Nova and prior roles he improved testability and observability, cutting data collection times and enabling faster failure diagnosis. He pairs academic work in inverse kinematics and numerical optimization with pragmatic systems engineering (C++, Python, embedded C, ROS, cloud tooling), and brings experience shipping robust on-robot testing and release pipelines. Based in Weymouth, MA, he combines low-level electronics and autopilot design roots with fleet-scale navigation reliability expertise.
