Hi!

I’m Chenna Kautilya

You can reach me over email, LinkedIn, twitter.

At Medra Robotics, I led the technical redesign of our autonomy stack, transforming it into a modular platform that could generalize across tasks. At Nimble Robotics and Omron Research Center, I built the motion planning and perception systems that power warehouse automation and industrial manipulation.

I bring expertise across the full stack—motion planning, control, machine learning, infrastructure—with a focus on what it takes to deploy robotics systems that work reliably in production. I earned my Master’s in Robotics from the University of Utah, researching probabilistic manipulation planning at the LL4MA Lab.
