Autonomous Drone Swarm
Multi-layer collision-avoidance for autonomous drone swarms — built in Go with ROS 2, PX4, ORCA, and LiDAR, plus MAVLink mission workflows and a Gazebo CI/CD test harness. Real-time edge perception (YOLO/ONNX) ran on Raspberry Pi CM4.

About Me
Software & AI engineer who likes hard problems across the stack — and shipping them.
Hi, I'm Eugenio Kuri — a software & AI engineer who builds across the stack: machine learning and LLMs, full-stack applications, and autonomous systems — grounded in Data Science & Applied Mathematics at the University of Michigan. Go Blue! 〽️
I've shipped LLM-powered products (custom models, financial-automation pipelines, and recommendation systems at Embedding Labs and beyond), real-time computer vision, and high-performance, autonomous systems — including collision-avoidance for drone swarms in Go with ROS 2 and PX4. I like turning research-grade ideas into things people can actually use.
I care about reliable systems, clean interfaces, and clear communication — I'm a featured TEDx speaker, I mentor fellow robotics students, and I'm fluent in English and Spanish. Off the clock you'll find me camping or at the movies.

Software Engineer · Merlin Drones — Remote
May 2026 - Aug 2026
- Designed and implemented a collision-avoidance system for autonomous drone swarms in Go, improving flight safety through ROS 2, PX4, ORCA, and LiDAR integration.
- Developed an edge perception pipeline on Raspberry Pi CM4 using YOLO/ONNX and OpenCV, enabling accurate GPS localization and continuous target tracking.
- Implemented end-to-end MAVLink workflows for mission cancellation, in-flight recovery, and transit-speed control across the swarm platform.
- Engineered a one-command Gazebo simulation test harness for obstacle scenarios, automating validation and repeatable regression testing in CI/CD.
- Built Ground Control Station features (live telemetry, map-based mission planning, USB GNSS, failsafes) and resolved distributed-systems failures — leader-election conflicts, race conditions, and command timeouts.
Software Engineer · Embedding Labs — Remote
May 2025 - Aug 2025
- Engineered an automated bookkeeping platform in Python that transformed invoices and bank statements into double-entry journal entries.
- Automated client onboarding by deriving rules from historical ledgers with LLM-assisted fallback and validation, scaling the platform past its three-customer limit.
- Replaced a vision-based statement-extraction pipeline with a deterministic pdfplumber parser, reducing operational complexity.
- Built responsive operator interfaces in Next.js, React, and TypeScript for policy diffing, FX management, onboarding, and PDF exports.
- Integrated Firestore, BigQuery, and OpenAI APIs into scalable pipelines that automated financial-document processing.
Instructional Aide · Michigan Department of Robotics — Ann Arbor, MI
Jan 2025 - Apr 2025
- Mentored 10+ undergraduate robotics teams on system architecture, mechanical design, electronics integration, and software debugging.
- Developed iterative testing protocols that accelerated hardware-software debugging across 8 capstone robotics projects.
- Provided hands-on support with embedded systems, sensors, motor controllers, and robotics software.
