Hi, I'm Hirenkumar vyas

Robotics Engineer — building systems that move, sense, and think.

I design and develop robotic systems, from perception and control to embedded software and automation. Open to roles in robotics, autonomy, and mechatronics.

01. About

I'm a robotics engineer with experience at Ati Motors (autonomy, safety, path-tracking, MPC) and Swaayatt Robotics (LQR/MPC, Gazebo). I've led autonomous teams at national events—AIR 1 at SEVC 2023—and have IEEE publications in assistive tech and graph-based NLP. I focus on control systems, perception, and production-ready robotics.

I enjoy turning research into reliable systems: from safety pipelines in C++ and EKF-based kinematics to Data-Driven MPC and path tracking in live warehouses. Always up for hard problems in autonomy and automation.
