Robotics Engineer at Near Earth Autonomy
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKapil Rawal is a robotics engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building autonomous aerial systems, currently developing perception and autonomy software at Near Earth Autonomy in Pittsburgh. He combines a solid academic foundation—a Robotics MS from the University of Maryland and a BE in Electronics—with practical experience from micro air vehicle projects and industry internships focused on embedded systems and IoT. Kapil has a track record of shrinking complex autonomy stacks to fit strict weight and performance constraints (notably a 500 g quadrotor delivery project), bridging computer vision, control, and embedded implementation. Comfortable moving designs from research prototypes to field-ready systems, he brings pragmatic engineering discipline and a constant focus on making robots truly autonomous.
