Summary
Naveen Bejagam is a robotics software engineer with a decade of experience building motion planning, decision-making, and control software for autonomous vehicles and robots. He has progressed from academic research—publishing state-of-the-art work on system identification for space robots—to industry roles leading algorithm development and technical teams at ZF Group and now building motion planning for automated vehicles at Wayve. His strengths include motion planning, state estimation, control, and system identification, and he has a track record of improving computational efficiency and scalability for high-DOF systems. At IIT Jodhpur he developed trajectory-planning methods that outperformed prior approaches by 50–60% in compute efficiency, demonstrating an ability to translate deep research into practical algorithms. Based in the UK, Naveen blends the rigor of academic research with production-facing engineering, and quietly focuses on squeezing practical performance gains out of complex robotic systems.
