Hey there! Looking to hire an awesome engineer? I'm here to help.

Robotics, autonomy, simulation, AI tooling

Yuval Grimberg

I build systems, simulations, and tools that actually do the thing.

Control, autonomy, Python, AI tooling, and the occasional side quest that somehow becomes a working prototype.

Open to robotics, autonomy, simulation, and AI/tooling roles. Based in Israel, open to remote or relocation.

Pick the mission. I will show the proof.

Recruiters should not need a treasure map. Choose the role shape and the site will line up projects, skills, and the honest reason I fit.

Robotics Systems Developer

I connect controls, perception, code, and physical constraints without pretending robots live in clean PowerPoint rectangles.

Proof BGR driverless stack
Tools Python, ROS2, OpenCV
Mode Build, test, iterate
  • Led path planning and control work for a real Formula Student driverless effort.
  • Comfortable translating messy system behavior into debuggable software loops.
  • Useful when the job needs range, not a one-trick framework certificate.

About Me

๐ŸŽ“ Background

B.Sc. Mechanical Engineering from BGU, with a strong bias toward systems that move, estimate, decide, and occasionally misbehave in public. I led Path Planning & Control for BGRacing's Formula Student driverless effort and keep building across autonomy, control, simulation, and AI tooling.

๐Ÿš€ Working Style

I like ambiguous problems, but I do not worship ambiguity. Break the problem apart, build a useful first version, test the thing, then make it less embarrassing one iteration at a time.

๐Ÿ’ก Systems Taste

I am most useful where math meets software and hardware stops being polite: estimation, control, simulation, perception, automation, and developer tools that make the work easier to reason about.

BGR Path Planning & Control

FEATURED

Formula Student autonomous racing work: path planning, control, simulation loops, and real vehicle constraints. This is the serious anchor, not a toy demo wearing a helmet.

Orbital Rendezvous LQI

CONTROL

Two-body orbital propagation, Clohessy-Wiltshire rendezvous control, cached LQI, constrained MPC comparison, Streamlit viewer, and reproducible plots.

There is more in the terminal.

The command palette keeps the full GitHub snapshot categorized as Featured, Lab, Tools, Learning Archive, and Forks / References. Public categories, private scoring. Very civilized.

Epic Reviews

What legendary figures would say about my work (if they could see this portfolio)

๐ŸŽฏ

Legendary Engineering

"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!"

- Ray Charles
(Spiritual endorsement)
๐Ÿš€

Mind-Blowing Innovation

"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."

- Stephen Hawking
(Interdimensional consultation)
โšก

Pure Genius

"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!"

- Elon Musk
(Definitely would say this after a few drinks)
๐ŸŽต

Absolutely Revolutionary

"E=mcยฒ 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."

- Albert Einstein
(Time travel is complicated)

Beyond Perfection

"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. The engineering skills are real, the humor is opt-in, and the terminal is where the page stops pretending to be normal.

opt-in roast mode

The page behaves. The terminal has opinions.

Public surface stays mostly polite. If you explicitly ask for the roast, Clippy puts on a tiny leather jacket and the compiler stops pretending to be neutral.

The Human Side

Engineering first. Personality second. Still, life is too short for beige office-chair energy. Bring the goose.

Helpful guide first, dumb joyful desk menace second. He is not qualified to review pull requests, which has never stopped anyone.

Random Facts That Make Me Hireable

๐Ÿš—

Car Enthusiast

I can debug autonomous vehicles AND explain why pop-up headlights were engineering art

๐Ÿง 

Neuroscience & Biomimicry

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.

๐ŸŽธ

Musician at Large

Guitar, drums, and an awkward French-horn phaseโ€”like a classic ADHD kid, I canโ€™t stick to just one instrument. Musicโ€™s been my long-term jam session for timing, coordination, and creative flow.

Robot Whisperer

I speak fluent robot. They usually listen. Sometimes they plot against me.

Retro Classics

Six old-school games that still explain timing, constraints, flow, and why children in the 90s developed suspiciously strong patience. No hosted binaries; only source pages.

one shelf, no landfill

Games I would actually defend in a meeting

Fast to understand, mechanically sharp, and still useful as tiny design lessons. Also: legally safer than hosting mystery ZIPs.

Primary Pick

Little Fighter 2

Local multiplayer chaos with clear rules, readable feedback, and enough punch-per-pixel to justify the nostalgia.

Genre
Fighting / multiplayer
Why here
Readable mechanics, immediate feedback, excellent couch-war crime scene.
Primary Pick

Airxonix

Territory capture, risk control, and arcade pressure. Basically planning under uncertainty, but neon.

Genre
Arcade / strategy
Why here
Simple objective, nasty edge cases, clean tension loop.
Primary Pick

Elastomania

Physics, timing, failure recovery, and the emotional damage of overconfidence. A whole curriculum on two wheels.

Genre
Physics / racing
Why here
Constraint handling with consequences. Very educational. Deeply rude.
old-games.org

Jazz Jackrabbit

Fast platforming, green attitude, and a soundtrack with more swagger than most sprint demos.

Genre
Platformer
Signal
Speed, rhythm, visual clarity.
old-games.org

Dangerous Dave

Small, brutal, and instantly readable. A reminder that level design can be simple and still bully your ego.

Genre
Platformer
Signal
Timing, risk, primitive controls with consequences.
old-games.org

SkyRoads

Space-road reflexes, fuel anxiety, and the exact amount of punishment old PC games considered normal.

Genre
Arcade / runner
Signal
Reaction loops, resource pressure, flow.

nomination lane

Missing a classic?

Suggest one. The bar is simple: memorable mechanics, inspectable source page, and at least one lesson besides โ€œold games hated childrenโ€.

safe contact surface

Hire Me Command Center

Real email, clear links, no phone-number buffet for scrapers. The site helps people reach me without pretending this static page has a secret CRM under the floorboards.

Direct email yuval.grimberg@gmail.com No burner, no phone number buffet.

draft helper

Build a clean email

Static site, zero backend. This only creates a mailto draft and leaves the fallback email visible.

If mailto misbehaves, copy the email above. The fallback is intentionally hard to miss.

Availability Status

Currently Available

Open to robotics, autonomy, simulation, and AI/tooling roles. Based in Israel, open to remote or relocation.

  • Robotics and autonomy software
  • Simulation, controls, and GNC
  • Python tooling and AI pipelines
  • Useful chaos in measured doses

public cv gate

Tiny Human Check, Then CV

Anyone human can open the public CV. This is anti-scraper friction, not pretend security. The public version keeps phone/private details off GitHub Pages.

The answer is not stored, sent, or made weird.
