Senior Software Engineer

• Feb 2020 - Jul 2021

Leading the integration and automated testing of a next generation Yocto-based infotainment platform (a continuation of the previous Luxoft job in a more senior capacity), including: • setting and maintaining quality standards including code guidelines and merge request processes (samples on request), • merge request code reviews to internal yocto layers, every day, • ensuring all long term maintainability concerns are addressed (such as setting up rolling master branch to keep up with upstream, and master first policy), • working with BSP suppliers (Samsung/Qualcomm/Bosch/Harman) to integrate their BSP layers and pieces they're made of into Mbition's build system, • assisting all feature teams with their integration questions and problems on a daily basis, • improving the emulation environment for automated tests; for example recent qemu support for accelerated graphics in yocto is a direct outcome of those efforts, • driving the effort to set up end-to-end testing of the full system on real hardware according to CICD principles: before anything gets merged, • writing internal blog posts describing latest changes and improvements to the platform development (samples on request), • and everything else Show less

Senior Software Engineer

• Jun 2011 - Jul 2018

Software engineer at Intel Open Source technology center • My last role was maintaining the OpenEmbedded software stack in the Yocto Project, from which custom embedded-oriented Linux distributions can be assembled. The project is written in a combination of Unix shell, and Python, and my tasks included identifying and fixing problems in upstream source code pulled from various sources (which requires understanding of C, C++, Python or any other language that upstream is using), and implementing Yocto enhancements such as gobject introspection support, or adding multi-threading to rpm packaging. • Contributing to various Linux middleware projects; particularly gSSO and wds . • gSSO is a single sign-on service for Linux-based platforms, written in C on top of GLib framework. Its password- and authentication-management supports all the common authentication protocols such as OAuth, Digest and SASL Show less
