NathanielOtengengineer : AI Engineer, Software Developer, Robotics & IoT, and CS/CTE Educator

I build robots, train models, and ship production software. Then I teach it, across K-12, higher education, and industry.

(01) Profile

I work where code meets the physical world. Robots that read their sensors, models trained on real atmospheric data, software that people actually open every day. Then I turn around and teach it, so the next person builds it faster than I did.

(03) Capabilities

Four disciplines, one practice.

Each one makes the others better. Teaching sharpens the engineering, and the engineering keeps the teaching honest.

  1. 01

    AI & machine learning

    AI agents and agentic systems built with Claude, ChatGPT, CrewAI, and LangGraph, coding agents like Claude Code and Codex, and ML pipelines in PyTorch and TensorFlow tested on real atmospheric and education data.

    • ESP32
    • Arduino
    • Raspberry Pi
    • C / C++
  3. 03

    Software engineering

    Production web apps in Python, React, and Next.js. Clean REST APIs, Django backends, and interfaces that stay fast on a school Chromebook.

    • Next.js
    • React
    • Django
    • Python
    • Supabase
  4. 04

    Teaching & curriculum

    Project-based CS, AI, and robotics courses for K-12, university classrooms, and industry teams. Standards-aligned, hands-on, and measured by what students can build.

    • CS & CTE
    • Curriculum design
    • Mentoring
    • Workshops
