Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSaawan Patel is a mechanical engineer-turned-founder with 8 years of cross-disciplinary experience building robotics, automation, and cloud-native AI tooling from prototype to production. As Co-Founder of VoxelForge he architected GPU-accelerated text-to-3D pipelines, mesh-optimization tooling, and a microservice backend on GCP—combining hands-on low-level geometry work with scalable orchestration and payments integration. His background spans autonomy stacks (ROS2 perception for EcoCAR), embedded and rapid prototyping, and robotics control systems, reflecting a knack for bridging mechanical design and software engineering. Notably, he has repeatedly cut complexity and manual effort—halving mesh complexity for printability and driving 5× throughput improvements with automation—while shipping robust, tested C++/Python systems. Based in Toronto, he’s finishing an MEng and brings a practical, mathematically minded approach to turning novel algorithms into manufacturable products.
