Eliott R.

Robotics & Aerospace Software Engineer | Physics Simulation & AR | iOS

With over 13 years of experience at NASA and JHU/APL, I specialize in building mission-critical applications that combine advanced multibody dynamics with immersive 3D/AR interfaces. I am a specialist in "Scientific Mobile" development—taking complex engineering logic and translating it into polished, production-ready software for iOS, Android, and Web. CORE SPECIALIZATIONS: SPATIAL ROBOTICS & DIGITAL TWINS: High-performance visualization for the robotics industry. Expertise in URDF parsing, MuJoCo physics integration, and real-time kinematic overlays using RealityKit and Unity. SCIENTIFIC MOBILE ARCHITECTURE: Expert-level development in Swift (SwiftUI), Kotlin (Jetpack Compose), and Python. I specialize in bridging scientific computing stacks with modern mobile UI. 3D GRAPHICS & ASSET PIPELINES: Full-cycle 3D development including Blender modeling, mobile-optimized GLB/USDZ file exports, photogrammetry for medical/industrial devices, and 3D graphics theory. TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP: 13 years of Aerospace R&D experience as a supervisor and lead engineer. I provide the high-level architecture and project management needed to take an idea from a whiteboard to a shipped MVP. THE ENGINEERING EDGE: Most developers lack the mechanical background to understand complex dynamics; most engineers lack the software skills to ship a native mobile app. I deliver both. My work on AR Mobile Robotics and Mobile Multibody Dynamics demonstrates my ability to build mathematically rigorous tools that remain intuitive and user-friendly. PROJECT FOCUS (4–12 WEEK SPRINTS): Robotics/Aerospace MVPs: Transforming research algorithms into prototypes. Industrial AR Tools: Building spatial viewers for medical or mechanical hardware. 3D Visualization: Creating high-fidelity 3D assets for complex products. Let’s build the future of spatial engineering together.
