About

Hi! I'm currently working at Tesla Autopilot as a Machine Learning Engineer working on 3D world models for Tesla Autopilot and Optimus. I have extensive experience with computer graphics, neural rendering (such as NeRf's and Gaussian Splatting), AI (especially 3D Generative AI) and traditional software development of large scale systems. I've been coding ever since I was 12! Make sure to checkout my website at In terms of other passions, I love playing piano and guitar, and I'm always up for playing some tennis! Let me know if you would ever like to chat! - Reach me here on LinkedIn or by emailing "hi [at] shahan.ca"
