Full-Stack Engineer β’ Research Engineer | Robotics, Control, Power Systems, and Scientific Tooling
I build and research systems at the intersection of high-stakes power systems dynamics and modern engineering tools. My work bridges the gap between theoretical scientific discovery and robust, deployable software solutions.
Core Competencies:
- Power Systems & Control: Dynamic frequency estimation (PMU), low-inertia grid stability, distributed control, and graph-structured systems.
- Scientific Computing: Benchmarking frameworks, Monte Carlo simulation, and reproducible research pipelines.
- Software Engineering: Full-Stack development (TypeScript/Python), backend architecture, and real-time system design (FPGA focus).
- Intelligent Systems: Machine Learning for engineering discovery and multi-agent coordination.
My current work focuses on developing rigorous methods and infrastructure to analyze the dynamic behavior of modern electrical systems:
- Dynamic Estimation: Dynamic frequency, RoCoF estimation, and advanced tracking methods (EKF/Kalman filters) for low-inertia power grids.
- Control & Networks: Distributed control theory, graph-structured systems, and locality-aware coordination strategies.
- Hardware Implementation: Architecting real-time estimation systems optimized for hardware (FPGA-oriented pipelines).
- Benchmarking: Developing reproducible frameworks to stress-test and compare complex scientific methods against realistic grid disturbances.
A specialized benchmarking framework designed to rigorously evaluate the latency, robustness, and computational cost of frequency and RoCoF estimation algorithms in modern power systems. Goal: To move beyond idealized tests by simulating composite disturbances (harmonics, phase jumps) that mimic real-world IBR grid failures. Key Contributions:
- Developed a stress-oriented evaluation pipeline using high-fidelity dual-rate numerical simulations.
- Analyzed the fundamental Latency vs. Robustness Trade-off across diverse estimators (EKF, PLLs, Data-driven methods).
- Quantified failure modes under composite disturbance scenarios to identify limitations in current testing methodologies.
A research direction focused on creating highly efficient, hardware-native implementations of dynamic estimators for power applications. Goal: To transition simulation-grade algorithms (like Kalman filters) into deployable, real-time estimation cores running directly on FPGAs. Focus: Parallel processing structures, minimizing latency, and optimizing signal-processing pipelines for low-latency grid control.
Building practical applications that blend robust engineering with modern software architecture.
- Product Focus: Developing full-stack platforms (using TypeScript/React) and scientific tools to ensure research is reproducible, scalable, and reusable.
- Engineering Stack: Proficient in Python, PyTorch, Numerical Simulation, distributed control theory, and modern web stacks (Node.js, React).
