Summary
Shubham Singh is a robotics-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience, currently building real-time locomotion and whole-body control software for humanoid robots at Apptronik. He completed a Ph.D. focused on optimization for legged robotics and model predictive control, with publications in ICRA, IROS, and IEEE RA-L, and has hands-on experience deploying onboard trajectory optimization algorithms in C++ and Fortran. His background spans hypersonic mission design, RL-driven data-center optimization, and manipulation research at Flexiv, reflecting a rare blend of aerospace rigor and practical robot control. Comfortable across simulation, hardware testing, and OTA embedded systems, he accelerates learning-based behaviors using simulation-generated data. Outside core robotics he’s an effective communicator (Toastmasters Level-3) and maintains an active research presence via GitHub and Google Scholar, positioning him for roles in manipulation or legged systems.
