Timeline

Software Engineer • Middle
hibot • Full-Time
May 2023 to Present 3 Years 5 Months Tokyo In office
Modernized ultrasonic industrial inspection processing by migrating legacy Python algorithms to C++ and strengthening the production architecture with a PostgreSQL-backed data pipeline. Accelerated A-scan/C-scan generation, refactored a monolithic inspection API into modular components, and implemented unit, integration, and Playwright end-to-end verification. Migrated a large ROS 1 motion-planning stack to ROS 2/C++ and owned deployment on a physical multi-joint robot, covering IK/motion control, safety behaviors, and sensor/perception pipelines. Built Go-based robot simulation and GitLab CI software-in-the-loop fault-recovery validation using Docker-based robot stack runs.
