This week, we’re joined by Kunal Desai, who is a senior robotics software engineer at Nvidia. Although now firmly rooted in the heart of Silicon Valley, Kunal’s career path was anything but easy, having explored a variety of roles for over a decade after college to finally find the right one. Initially wanting to be a physics professor, Kunal worked over 7 years in national defense, got an MBA, a master’s in computer science, worked at Ford, NASA, Johns Hopkins, and several autonomous vehicle companies. Trying to find work you love can be an incredibly difficult path, and despite his current success, for Kunal, finding the right fit took over a decade. If you’re currently trying to figure out what to do in your next role, but struggling to even know where to start, this episode is for you.
