Adam Serafin

Robotics & AI Engineer

Building intelligent robotic systems with ROS2, sensor fusion, and machine learning.

About

I'm a robotics software engineer with over 8 years of experience in ROS and ROS2 programming.

My expertise spans sensor fusion, system engineering, computer vision, and DevOps for robotics applications. I've worked on diverse projects from mobile robots to industrial automation with Universal Robots and ABB systems.

Beyond my professional work, I'm passionate about building the robotics community. I founded the Cracow Robotics & AI Club to connect enthusiasts and professionals, and I actively consult for clients on hardware selection and ROS2-based software development.

Based in Vienna, Austria, I bring international experience from projects in Poland, Japan, and across Europe, combining academic research with practical industry applications.
