Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLydia Zuehsow is an associate‑staff robotics and autonomous control systems engineer with a decade of experience building robust perception, state estimation, and navigation for ground and aerial robots in contested environments. At MIT Lincoln Laboratory she leads software efforts for autonomous systems, drawing on a background that includes mission-critical robotics work at Amazon Robotics where she developed AWS‑backed deployment infrastructure for robotic workcells. Fluent in C, C++, Python, Java, Typescript and experienced with ROS, OpenCV, TensorFlow and Gazebo, she bridges low‑level sensor integration, ML‑driven perception, and cloud automation. Lydia’s hands‑on skills extend to machining, composites fabrication and rapid prototyping, enabling faster hardware‑software iteration cycles. A certified Part 107 sUAS pilot with years of flight experience, she brings operational insight to algorithm design and testing. She’s particularly interested in making autonomous systems resilient in degraded or contested networks—an emphasis reflected in her tactical networks and control systems work.
