I'm Rajjit Laishram, an IoT Software Developer and Autonomous Systems Engineer based in Imphal, Manipur. I specialize in building the software layer between physical hardware and intelligent decision systems — from embedded edge devices to AI-driven monitoring platforms and autonomous drone systems.
Currently at Nibiaa, building enterprise IoT infrastructure with hybrid LoRaWAN/Satellite monitoring, offline AI anomaly detection, and MCP-based tool orchestration. Previously led autonomous drone software development at NAWA, reaching the finals of India's NIDAR Disaster Management competition with 215+ real-world flight tests.
"I write the code that makes machines think."
IoT Software Developer — Nibiaa (July 2025 – Present)
- Designed and demonstrated a prototype hybrid indoor/outdoor asset tracking system using LoRaWAN and satellite communication — built a simulated monitoring dashboard to evaluate the use case for an enterprise equipment rental client.
- Built a custom AI alerting application with geofencing, restricted zone breach detection, and AI-driven anomaly recommendations integrated directly into the IoT platform.
- Researched and developed MCP connectivity with Ollama for offline AI inference inside IoT platforms — keeping all device data fully on-premise with zero cloud dependency for AI processing.
- Customized a proprietary IoT mobile application for client use, enabling on-the-go device monitoring and control without requiring access to a full web dashboard.
- Engineered a peer-to-peer mesh communication layer for proprietary IoT network use.
- Deployed unified system monitoring integrating analytics, CRM, and custom APIs for platform observability.
- Mentored an intern on AI integration patterns and MCP-based tool orchestration within IoT systems.
- Built a complete autonomous drone software stack from scratch — custom Electron-based desktop GCS, YOLO + Hailo AI survivor detection pipeline (~80% accuracy), switchable RTSP/MJPEG video streaming, and multi-drone coordination logic.
- Implemented autonomous mission execution using DroneKit and MAVLink with multi-GPS cross-validation and custom failsafe routines.
- Reached the finals of India's NIDAR Disaster Management competition. Validated across 215+ real-world flight tests.
- Developed mobile drone control interfaces and engineered mission control algorithms for autonomous flight path execution in disaster simulation environments.
