👨🏻‍💻 About Me

I am Terry Lu, a Software Development Engineer II at Amazon Robotics, where I design and build large-scale simulation infrastructure that powers autonomous warehouse operations. My journey with robotics began in high school building DIY spider robots and quadrupeds, sparked a passion that led me through USC’s Computer Science program (B.S. & M.S.), and ultimately to architecting production systems that simulate thousands of robots daily.

What started as teenage fascination with making things move has evolved into expertise in distributed systems, robotics simulation, and large-scale infrastructure. Recently, I’ve become particularly interested in embodied AI - exploring how deep learning can train robots to perform complex autonomous tasks, bridging my simulation background with the cutting edge of robotic intelligence.

Feel free to reach out if you’d like to connect or discuss robotics, simulation systems, or embodied AI research. You can contact me at jiatinglu99@gmail.com or connect with me on LinkedIn.

Here is my latest resume as of June 9th, 2025.
