Senior🎓
Top SchoolRahul Karanam is a Senior Engineer and robotics specialist with six years of experience applying computer vision, NLP, and deep learning to real-world systems from 3D reconstruction to fleet ADAS and vision-based quality control. Trained at the University of Maryland (M.Eng. Robotics), he bridges research and production using ROS(2), C++, OpenCV, PCL, Open3D, and Python to deliver 2D/3D detection, tracking, calibration, and sensor-fusion solutions. His industry work spans startups and enterprises—developing edge-deployable ROS networks for truck fleets and designing a custom optical line-scanning laser system for automated 3D depth capture. Comfortable shipping models in constrained environments, he pairs algorithmic depth with hands-on engineering for embedded and edge compute. Rahul also brings NLP experience in machine translation, code generation, and chatbots, enabling multimodal system design. Based in San Francisco, he is an active practitioner who publishes his projects on GitHub and favors collaborative, detail-oriented development in agile teams.
