Senior Software Engineer

Bosch

Department: Powertools, Home & Garden

After the acquisition of The Kobi by Robert Bosch, my responsibilities included:
- Lead the ROS 2 conversion
- Modularization and cleanup of a large codebase (4M LOC to 1M LOC)
- Overhaul the robot behavior
- Integrate the vision system, cloud, phone app and external modules together
- Sanitize the code (ASAN, UBSAN, Valgrind)
- Setup the CI and dev environments

Principal Software Engineer, Mobile Robotics

The Kobi Company

As the principal engineer, I managed the Robotics & IoT teams and projects as well developed the autonomous mowing platform with the team.
My experience at The Kobi includes:
- Develop a high-performance IPC stack interchangeable with ROS2
- Develop replacements for the ROS Action Server and topics for fast intra-process communication
- Develop the behaviour & state machine library
- Developing sensor drivers (Lidar, Ultrasounds, IMUs)
- Develop a web interface for live control of the robot during demonstration
- Develop the navigation stack
- Supervise the cloud platform
- Integration of the Vision system to third-party systems with a ROS2 interface as well as C and C++ IPC interfaces.
- CI setup & maintenance

Unmanned Life

As the Lead Software Engineer, I lead the software team and developed from scratch award winning autonomous software according to the client requirements.
This includes every development including but not limited to: 
- Low level motor control & robot navigation
- UWB localization using the Roadrunner and Pozyx
- Sensor drivers & sensor fusion 
- 4G gateway &  cloud VPN
- RTK base station driver 
- Application framework & logic
- Embedded linux setup, update & maintenance
- Web interfaces for demonstrations
- Mission-based synchronization between heterogeneous robots

Lead Software Engineer, Mobile Robotics

Université catholique de Louvain

In collaboration with the MIT (Boston, MA), the UCL (Belgium) have the project to build with multicopters and ground robots. We realized a HW/SW UAV development platform based on ROS to allow other students to work on the project. 

- 10kg payload UAV
- Laser-based localization
- Task-based abstraction of the copter
- Real-time web-based interface

Researcher, Mobile Robotics

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

Invited two months at the MIT as part of my thesis on UAV autonomous control for construction. During those 2 months, we added the RTK-based localization and demonstrated the capabilities of our system.

Invited Researcher

Alexis Paques is a mobile robotics professional with a proven track record of success in developing autonomous robots and managing robotics teams and projects. With extensive experience in Rust, C++, and Python, Alexis has led the development of numerous robotics projects from the ground up, including the modularization of large legacy codebases and real time cloud interfaces to those products.
