Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNino Pereira is a Principal ADAS Engineer and robotics specialist with nearly a decade of industrial experience designing navigation, motion control and sensor-fusion systems for consumer and agricultural platforms. He led core navigation efforts at Dyson—delivering multiple 360-series robot vacuums, patenting path-deformation work, and scaling engineering teams—before moving to principal ADAS roles at TAFE. Nino combines deep C++ systems expertise with practical robotics tools (ROS, VIO, ICP map merging) and an academic grounding that includes a PhD from MIT-Portugal and a Udacity Self-Driving Car Nanodegree. He has a track record of inventing algorithms that bridge theory and production, such as the TWIN-RRT* planner for multi-target scenarios and robust dead-reckoning refinements. Comfortable in startups and large organisations, he thrives on technically challenging projects that require tight cross-functional collaboration and measurable product impact. Based in Cheltenham, he brings both hands-on algorithm development and technical leadership to ADAS and autonomous robotics programs.
