Varsha M

Robotics engineer with hands-on experience building and deploying real robotic systems — from quadruped locomotion to embedded manipulation. Seeking the Robot Learning Intern role at Origin to bridge my hardware-grounded background with learned policy development: contributing to VLA model deployment, teleoperation pipelines, and edge optimization on Jetson platforms for production construction robotics.

Robotic (STEM) Engineer - Raak Sapphire Private Ltd

(2026-02 - 2026-07)

• Developed embedded control systems on microcontrollers (Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi) for real-time automation tasks, including sensor interfacing and actuator control.
• Built and debugged motor control loops (PID-based) for precise actuation, directly applicable to contact-rich manipulation policy design.
• Designed and tested multi-sensor integration pipelines (ultrasonic, IR, IMU) for perception-driven robot behaviors.
• Optimized system performance under real-time constraints — analogous to latency-sensitive edge deployment requirements.
• Collaborated on end-to-end system testing and debugging on physical hardware, building intuition for policy failure analysis on real robots.
