What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to robotics and AI work involving autonomous systems, machine learning, perception, adaptive control, and intelligent inspection or smart infrastructure applications.

I'm pursuing a Master’s in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence at ITMO University, where I developed TriLayer-Nav, a navigation framework combining A*, DWA, and MPC for differential-drive robots in MuJoCo.

My work spans autonomous perception and control: I built a self-driving-car framework using LiDAR, image processing, CNNs, and Mask R-CNN, and published research on autonomous driving and robot navigation. I focus on AI-driven perception and adaptive control for robotic inspection and smart infrastructure systems.

Previously, at My Lighting and Pakistan Lighting LED, I led laboratory R&D and quality-control work across photometric testing, IES file generation, DIALux simulation, PCB testing, equipment calibration, and team training.
