Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicholas Ohi is a Software Systems Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in autonomous robotics and decision-making under uncertainty, currently developing autonomy capabilities for the Vehicle System Manager on NASA’s Gateway lunar station. He holds a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering and has led autonomy development for multiple grant-funded projects, award-winning competition robots, and contributed to Mars rover autonomy work at JPL. Nicholas blends hardware and software expertise with systems-level thinking—rapidly prototyping in simulation and deploying to real robots—so his solutions are grounded in practical deployment constraints. He’s published in peer-reviewed venues and mentors student teams, translating complex research into working systems for applications from planetary rovers to agricultural and search-and-rescue robots. Less obvious is his knack for cross-disciplinary communication: he routinely bridges mechanical, electrical, and software teams to debug system-level problems and accelerate integration.
