Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKevin Zhang is a Machine Learning Engineer with a decade of experience building deployed robotics and autonomous driving systems, currently contributing to Google from Sunnyvale. He specializes in applied ML, mobile robotics, and human-robot interaction, with a track record of turning research into production: at Toyota Research Institute he led end-to-end ML pipelines, improved on-vehicle prediction accuracy by 19%, and shipped an automated cloud tool (FAST) that became the driving division’s atomic data unit. Earlier roles include designing a patent-pending warehouse robotics architecture at Amazon Robotics and prototyping learning-based planners and sensor-fusion tools at nuTonomy, demonstrating an ability to bridge simulation, cloud, and on-vehicle stacks. Kevin combines deep technical fluency with product-focused engineering—shipping full-stack firmware and scalable data systems that accelerate development cycles from hours to seconds. He holds a BS in Computational Robotics Engineering from Olin College and is motivated by applying state-of-the-art robotics research to real-world autonomy challenges.
