Tejaaswini Narendran (TJ) 🔊

I'm a backend and systems software engineer building low-latency, high-throughput video and distributed systems for robotics and real-time applications. I've built production systems in C++ and Python from raw UDP networking and jitter-aware buffering to backend services, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD.

I've about 5 years of experience working at mundane, Gale Partners, and Follo Platforms. I was a Teaching Assistant for the Design of Autonomous Systems course at George Washington University teaching students about autonomous systems and robotics. My research currently is focused on detecting anomalies in a swarm system using reinforcement learning.

When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me diving into engineering rabbit holes, whether it’s the aerodynamics of F1 cars or the design behind the B-2 stealth bomber. I write poetry, enjoy long hikes, and will always say yes to rigatoni and espresso. I also love learning languages and am currently learning Farsi.
