RESEARCH & PROJECT EXPERIENCE
PaXini Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. Shenzhen, China
Robotics Software Engineer Humanoid Teleoperation 2023.12 – 2025.7
- Designed and implemented full-stack teleoperation software framework for whole-body teleoperation. Demonstrated at World Robot Conference 2024.
- Built a complete Requirements-Verification-Development-Test-CI/CD process and deployed to a 70-person development team.
Multimodal Data Collection for Imitation Learning 2025.2 – 2025.7
- Used multi-model data collection devices and designed a data process pipeline to collect manipulation information for robot imitation learning. Deployed in PaXini Super EID Factory.
- Fine-tune(full) openpi models on cloud server and inference locally to control different robots. Applied to the Procter & Gamble (P\&G) production process.
Dorabot Inc. Shenzhen, China
Robotics Software Engineer 2022.7 – 2023.9
- Developed large-scale (de)palletizing application using heavy-duty KUKA robots and Mixed Integer Programs (MIPs) for industry automated warehouses, achieving a processing speed of up to 1200 boxes per hour per single robot.
- Maintained a (de)palletizing showcase and algorithm verification platform using Yaskawa robots with containerized CI/CD, enabling 24/7 continuous operation.
Ningquan Science and Technology Inc. & SUSTech. Comprehensive Design Shenzhen, China
Algorithm Engineer Design Science for Reproducible and Shareable Robot Learning 2021.9 – 2022.6
- Proposed a novel method for reproducible and shareable robot learning by focusing on rich and intuitive representation, processing, and storage of manipulation data. This was achieved through the DeepClaw system that features a unified data storage format, easily accessible web-based software, and open-source, low-cost hardware for teleoperation and data collection.
- Published papers on method and tools from this project in ICARM 2024 and Materials & Design. And used in ME336 Collaborative Robot Learning from 2022 to 2024.
BionicDL Lab, SUSTech Shenzhen, China
Algorithm Engineer 2021.1 – 2021.6
- Course Project (ME336 Collaborative Robot Learning). [GitHub Repo]
- Designed and implemented an automated robotic waste sorting line with visual recognition. Improved sorting efficiency with a throw method rather than a traditional pick-and-place approach.
