Summary
Gunjan Khut is a Senior Staff Controls Engineer based in Boston with 8+ years of hands-on experience architecting robotics, industrial automation, and control systems. She designs and programs end-to-end solutions—PLCs, motion controllers, machine vision (Keyence/Cognex), and ABB/Fanuc robots—while driving data-driven process improvements and IoT/Industry 4.0 initiatives. Her background blends a Robotics master's from University of Maryland with practical cleanroom manufacturing experience, rapid prototyping, and embedded systems development. She has built computer-vision and ML pipelines for real-time object recognition and predictive analytics, and even created a data-science tool for solar-plant analysis. Known for translating complex hardware-software requirements into robust, manufacturable systems, she also contributes to open-source projects and collaborates closely with data engineering teams. Unusually for a controls engineer, she pairs deep mechatronics expertise with SQL/Azure big-data experience, enabling both device-level reliability and fleet-scale analytics.
