Control Systems Engineer
Mechanical Engineer specializing in Autonomous Vehicles, Control Theory, and Advanced System Design
A systems-minded generalist (B.Sc. Mechanical Engineering, BGU) with broad experience across control, dynamics, and perception. I led the Path Planning & Control team for BGRacing (Formula Student) to deliver its first self-driving car and have built projects including a learning-based LQI controller, an orbital propagator, and a robotics computer-vision system.
To solve complex problems at the intersection of hardware, software, and systems thinking. My strength is in seeing the big picture, connecting dots that others miss, and collaborating with teams to transform ambitious, ambiguous ideas into reality.
I specialize in the seams and gaps where different technologies meet. My focus is on integrating complex systems by bridging the divide between mechanical design, control theory, and AI. By identifying the core, shared principles between them, I simplify challenges and accelerate the development of novel solutions.
Seeking opportunities to apply my expertise in control systems, AI and autonomous vehicle technology to drive the future of humanity.
Cutting-edge skills in control systems, autonomous vehicles, and advanced engineering
Cutting-edge engineering solutions that showcase innovation and technical excellence
Built a path-planning & control stack for BGRacing’s autonomous racer GNC Piepline with an end-to-end from simulation to track. The pipeline runs on an AirSim-based simulator with interactive telemetry and logging, and the same code deploys on-car with full sensor/actuator integration.
Python-based project that simulates orbital mechanics and robust control for satellite rendezvous using the Clohessy-Wiltshire (CW) equations. This project includes various animations and visualizations to illustrate the dynamics of the rendezvous process.
This repository contains a comprehensive AI robotics system , featuring advanced computer vision, real-time hardware monitoring, and intelligent robot control capabilities. The system demonstrates modern ROS2 integration with state-of-the-art AI technologies.
What legendary figures would say about my work (if they could see this portfolio)
"Holy sh*t, this is the best engineering portfolio I've ever seen! And I've seen... well, not much because I'm blind, but this one SOUNDS amazing!"
"It made me walk again! Well, not literally - I'm still dead. But if I were alive, Yuval's control systems would definitely help me get around faster than my wheelchair ever did."
"Damn, I wish I had hired Yuval for Tesla autopilot. We probably wouldn't have crashed into all those traffic cones. This guy actually knows what he's doing!"
"E=mc² was cute, but Yuval's control algorithms? That's the real theory of everything! I'm literally jealous of a guy who wasn't even born yet when I died."
"I've seen 14,000,605 possible futures. In ALL of them, Yuval gets the job. In 14,000,604 of them, he also gets a raise within 6 months."
* Reviews may be slightly exaggerated for comedic effect. But seriously, the engineering skills are real, the humor is infectious, and the results speak for themselves. What more do you want? 🤷♂️
Yes, I can design control systems for autonomous vehicles. But can I make you laugh while doing it? Absolutely. 🤖
A collection of moments captured from travels near and far. This is the world as I see it .
Every serious engineer needs a debugging duck. Mine just happens to be animated and slightly unhinged.
I hide easter eggs in my code like I hide bugs... strategically and with purpose.

I can debug autonomous vehicles AND explain why pop-up headlights were engineering art
Obsessed with how brains perceive and control. I borrow those patterns (attention, feedback, redundancy) to build simpler, more robust systems. Broad horizons, cross-pollinated ideas.
Guitar, drums, and an awkward French-horn phase—like a classic ADHD kid, I can’t stick to just one instrument. Music’s been my long-term jam session for timing, coordination, and creative flow.
I speak fluent robot. They usually listen. Sometimes they plot against me.
