Summary
Sumil Majithia is a Robotics Application Engineer with eight years of multidisciplinary experience spanning robotics, mechatronics, aerial systems, computer vision, and vehicle dynamics. A University of Pennsylvania MS graduate, he has combined hands-on hardware prototyping and embedded C development with control systems, autonomous navigation and machine learning across research and competition settings. At Vimaan and the GRASP/Modular Robotics Lab he has worked on novel platforms—from soft “vine” robots that grow to navigate environments to applied robotics deployments—while previously building performance simulation tools for award-winning electric race cars. Comfortable bridging research and product, he brings deep experience in rapid iteration, system calibration, and validating simulations against real-world data. Based in Sunnyvale, he’s actively seeking full-time roles where he can turn interdisciplinary prototypes into deployed robotic systems.
