Summary
Paul Mathieu is a seasoned robotics and embedded software engineer with 13 years of experience designing everything from hobbyist Arduino prototypes to state-of-the-art biped humanoids. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he has shipped consumer device firmware and robot subsystems at Google, led software and firmware work for Kuri at Mayfield Robotics, and developed SLAM navigation and systems integration for humanoid platforms. Comfortable across C/C++, Linux, Android and embedded toolchains, he bridges research-grade motion planning with production-focused manufacturing and video/vision pipelines. Now freelancing as a "lonesome mercenary," he takes on diverse robotics challenges, bringing a knack for turning quick hacks into robust products and an unusual blend of aerospace education and hands-on robot-building experience.
