Summary
Keara Berlin is an AI Data Science Engineer with nine years of experience building machine learning and robotics solutions, currently advancing clinical-grade ML at Medtronic while pursuing a Master's in Robotics at the University of Minnesota. Her background spans end-to-end ML workflows—data labeling, augmentation, and model development in MATLAB and Python/PyTorch—as well as hands-on robotics research and ROS integration from underwater localization to human-centered robot face studies. She has shipped features at companies including Microsoft, Axon, and Vida, bridging mobile/frontend systems with sensor-driven algorithms for real-time applications like drone video overlays and menu translation. Comfortable in both research and product settings, she combines academic rigor with practical delivery and a clear interest in applying robotics and ML for social good. An often-overlooked strength is her ability to port and productionize algorithms across tools and platforms, turning MATLAB prototypes into robust Python/ROS components.
