Summary
Aaron Antone is a software and computer engineer with 8 years of experience building low-level firmware, board-level hardware, and automated test systems for consumer and cloud-scale devices. He has shipped UEFI and BMC firmware at Amazon and Microsoft, led embedded firmware and security initiatives for Meta VR devices, and repeatedly turned legacy codebases into reusable, testable platforms. Skilled in C++, Python, VLSI, and test automation, he blends hardware design and system software expertise to reduce development cycles and improve fleet reliability. Aaron has a strong record of implementing firmware security (bootloader protections, key rotation, image signing), designing test frameworks across RTOS and bare-metal targets, and extracting boot-time telemetry to expedite incident diagnosis. Based in Seattle with an M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Ohio State, he often bridges firmware, silicon, and telemetry to deliver practical, production-ready solutions.
