Experience
Machine Learning Engineer -
Oct 2025 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US
As an MLE-2 on the production team, my focus is on advancing Physical AI by designing, training, and optimizing complex deep neural networks for Skylark\'s adaptive agents. I leverage advanced Machine Learning techniques, including reinforcement learning, novel architectures, and hardware optimization, to build intelligence that runs on-device for platforms like drones, quadrupeds and future humanoid systems. My work ensures our AI can instantly self-learn and make split-second, adaptive decisions in dynamic, high-stakes environments across public safety and defense sectors.
