Summary Perception engineer working on 3D vision for robotics — depth estimation, segmentation, scene reconstruction, and deploying models on real hardware.

Work

  • 2026.05 - present

    Sausalito, CA

    Software Engineer - Perception
    Seneca
    Building the perception stack for autonomous drones — automated data annotation and training pipelines, custom depth models, and LiDAR-based detection deployed on the edge.
    • Built an automated data annotation and training pipeline by adapting SAM3 and FoundationStereo, used to train YOLO and custom depth models for drone-specific scenarios
    • Designed and deployed an end-to-end fine-tuning pipeline for LiDAR-based human detection on AGX-Orin
  • 2025.08 - 2026.03

    Burlingame, CA

    Machine Learning Engineer, Computer Vision
    Meta - Reality Labs
    Computer vision for AR/VR perception — segmentation, stereo depth, synthetic data generation, and 3D scene understanding.
    • Optimized a hand-object segmentation pipeline, improving GPU utilization by 75%, and integrated SAM3 with box + text prompting into an auto-labeling and QA workflow
    • Built end-to-end stereo depth estimation pipelines using a customized NVIDIA Foundation Stereo model for real-world AR/VR perception workloads
    • Developed a synthetic data generation pipeline from low-quality multi-view AR/VR captures using Gaussian Splatting (2D/3DGS), evaluating 4DGS variants for fidelity and temporal consistency on a CVPR-scale dataset
    • Fine-tuned a language-grounded 3D-VLM for scene understanding and geometry-aware AR/VR panel placement, delivering results on 360K samples
  • 2024.04 - 2024.09

    San Jose, CA

    Geometric Computer Vision
    Vimaan Robotics
    Detection, segmentation, and camera calibration for warehouse inventory automation.
    • Deployed a transformer-based (DETR) detection and segmentation system on cloud for pallet/ground recognition, improving mAP50-95 by 5% by customizing decoder outputs
    • Developed a camera calibration module with noise modeling, achieving pose estimation accuracy within 0.25 degrees and 2 cm
  • 2022.06 - 2023.05
    Engineer
    Larsen & Toubro Infotech
