5 out of 5 stars
I had a great mock system design interview session with Payam. His robotics and autonomy experience brought a lot of depth to the discussion, and he provided very insightful feedback, practical guidance, and clear directions on how I can improve. I really appreciated the way he connected the system design discussion to real-world robotics challenges, which made the session especially valuable. I’d be very happy to work with Payam again and highly recommend him as a mentor.
