Zdenek B.
Control Engineer | MPC, RL, PX4 | MATLAB & Simulink
Control engineer, PhD in cybernetics, currently a postdoc researcher working on drone autonomy. Most of my work is MPC, trajectory optimization, and reinforcement learning in MATLAB/Simulink and Python, plus UAV software around PX4 (MAVLink, offboard control, SITL). Recent jobs here: a deep RL obstacle-avoidance model in Simulink with a high-fidelity 6-DoF plant and an NMPC baseline, adaptive control review, PX4 simulator debugging, and a scientific MATLAB App. I work part-time alongside my research position, so I prefer well-scoped projects with clear milestones. Everything I deliver comes with documentation and a reproducible setup.
