Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolUmang Rastogi is a software engineer with nine years of experience specializing in robotics and motion planning, currently building tools at MathWorks in Boston. He combines a hands-on background in ROS, Python, and C++ with graduate robotics training from the University of Maryland and embedded/IOT exposure from earlier roles. His experience spans product-focused startups and research-adjacent work, shipping software at Digital Dream Labs and contributing to teaching and development during his MEng. Passionate about the self-driving industry, he focuses on turning motion-planning algorithms into reliable, production-ready code. A less obvious strength is his cross-domain fluency—from low-level embedded systems to higher-level robotic planning—which helps bridge hardware constraints and software design.
