About Me

I'm Junior Software Engineer @ Aegeus Technologies building autonomous robots for robotic dry cleaning at the Solar Parks so as to minimize the soiling losses . Before joining Aegeus Technologies , I worked as Project Intern @ Robotics Lab ,Department of Electrical Engineering , IIT Roorkee , where I worked on the reinforcement learning based control of the UR5 Robotic Arm .

I hold an Integrated B.Tech - M.Tech degree in Power & Energy Engineering from the Central University of Karnataka , where I secured an "O" grade ( Outstanding ) and received a free-ship award for my academic performance . I also have multiple certifications and internships in the field of Robotics and Machine Learning .I am passionate and ethusiastic about Robotics and Machine Learning . I am always open to new opportunities and challenges that can help me grow and make a positive impact .

Skills

Recommendations

I have known Baleshwar since 2017. He is a really fast learner, posses great programming skills and has strong command over Linux (Bash). He started programming and using Linux around his second semester . His enthusiasm for programming and technology is quite apparent from his participations and leading the teams twice in IEEEXtreme 12.0 and 13.0 and in the Smart India Hackathon 2019 and 2020 .

- Sudhanshu Kumar , SDE @ Amazon Web Services , Dublin , Ireland

Baleshwar has aptitude for research as well as to learn and endeavour in a new research and emerging areas.He is quick to grasp new concepts and implement them in practice.

- Dr Sohom Chakrabarty , Assistant Professor , IIT Roorkee , India.(Ex. Engineer , General Electric )

I highly recommend his expertise to any person looking for expertise in Deep Learning and Raspberry Pi. He is the most profound person I haver ever met , and his ability to tackle any problem is remarkable with a warm smile..

- Ritish Kumar Tiwari , Decision Analytics Associate @ ZS

You have done a great job as an intern . All the best for your future endeavours .
