About Tim Perkins
I\'m obsessed with software craftsmanship and the art of software construction. I have extensive experience refactoring and hardening existing code, transforming start-up concepts into real world products. I love greenfield projects too. While I primary write in C++, I am also experienced in writing C, Python, Lua, TypeScript, and Bash. I\'ve worked at multiple robotics companies in the greater Boston area, on cross-functional projects involving mechanical, electrical, software, product, and QA. I have experience working in multiple robotics domains such as behaviors, motion planning, localization, frameworks, core libraries, APIs, architecture, logging, diagnostics, testing, GUIs, CLIs, containerization, etc.
