About

Hi, I'm Cédric.

Master's student in Robotics at Penn, graduating May 2026. Building robots and writing software for them.

Born in France, raised a bit everywhere, landed in Philadelphia for Penn. I'm a Master's student in Robotics graduating in May 2026, and I spend most of my time making things move.

Right now that means building rover telemetry and autonomy as a software intern at NASA Goddard, and pushing an off-road robot around GRASP Lab for research. Before that I was racing F1Tenth cars, shipping a library robot for the SICK $10K challenge, and designing manipulators in the machine shop.

Outside the lab I produce and DJ electronic music, lift and train calisthenics most days, scuba dive whenever I can, and sail when the Mediterranean cooperates. I care about taste, craft, and building things that feel good to use.

I'm job-hunting for new-grad robotics roles in SF starting in 2026. If you're building something hard at the intersection of mechanical design, controls and software, say hi.
