Summary
Nathan Hatch is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, and production software, currently building autonomy systems at Overland AI. He earned graduate research credentials working with Dr. Byron Boots on robot learning, specializing in high-speed obstacle avoidance via information-theoretic model-predictive control and real-time bipedal locomotion for rough terrain. Nathan pairs deep academic research (PhD-level work at Georgia Tech and an MS from University of Washington) with practical full-stack and DevOps experience from earlier roles, enabling him to move algorithms into reliable systems. Based in Seattle, he’s focused on perception and control for autonomous vehicles but brings an unusual blend of rapid prototyping, systems engineering, and theoretical rigor that helps bridge lab results and deployable products.
