Jegathesan Shanmugam is an AI and robotics engineer with nine years of experience building high-performance perception and embedded systems, now leading as a founding engineer at a stealth physical-AI startup. He moved from embedded Linux and OS/BSP work into designing vision stacks for self-driving cars and industrial inspection, achieving orders-of-magnitude speedups (e.g., 30x frame processing improvements) and sub-second edge pipelines. At Airbus he led Generative AI and vision projects, architecting on-prem RAG and compliance automation while also delivering 3D point-cloud defect quantification and tailored advanced-vision solutions with startups. Comfortable across C++, OpenCV, Eigen, ROS and model optimization toolchains (OpenVINO/ARMNN/TIDL), he blends low-level performance engineering with applied ML and reinforcement learning for mapless navigation. Known for a top-down problem-solving approach, rapid learning, and turning prototypes into production, he pairs hands-on coding with technical strategy and stakeholder leadership. Based in Bengaluru, he publishes technical write-ups and maintains active GitHub work under nullbyte91, reflecting a continuous drive to experiment and ship real-world AI systems.
