Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSanjuksha Nirgude is a robotics software engineer with eight years of experience building autonomous systems across industry and open-source projects, currently advancing perimeter security robots at Nightingale Security in California. She holds a master's in Mechatronics, Robotics and Automation from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and has applied that interdisciplinary training to simulation, control, and perception work at Clearpath, Symbotic, and Open Robotics. Her background spans simulation at scale (Gazebo on AWS EC2), firmware-to-cloud integration for mobile robots, and production-grade pick-and-place and motion-planning algorithms validated in test-driven environments. At Open Robotics she contributed bug fixes and verification for Gazebo releases used by NASA teams, showing an ability to bridge developer tooling and mission-critical robotics. Known for translating STL models into dynamic simulations and serving as a cross-team triage and communicator, she combines hands-on coding with stakeholder-facing delivery. She brings a practical blend of research-caliber rigor and field-proven implementation that shortens the path from prototype to deployed autonomous behavior.
