Senior🎓
Top SchoolAaron Wisner is a systems and embedded software engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in low-level firmware, drivers, and hardware-software co-design for AI accelerators. He has led ASIC-SW efforts at Google for multiple generations of TPUs and now drives system management, FW/driver bringup, and HW/SW codesign for AI hardware at OpenAI. Comfortable across C/C++ and embedded stacks, he has a track record of fleet-scale RAS improvements, silicon bringup, and production driver development. Early work includes open Parallella examples interfacing SPI/I2C devices and pragmatic tooling like a USB Firehose programmer and fastboot conformance tester, showing a knack for practical, reusable low-level tooling. A Cornell M.Eng. in ECE with startup hardware design experience, he blends rigorous academic training with hands-on prototyping and productionization. Notably, his contributions span both highly confidential, large-scale accelerator programs and community-facing embedded projects.

parallella/parallella-examples
Nov 2014 - Dec 2014
Community created parallella projects
Role in this project:
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:27 commits in 26 days
Contributions summary:Aaron contributed multiple example programs for the Parallella platform, focusing on interfacing with external hardware using SPI and I2C communication protocols. These programs demonstrate the use of the parallella-utils library to control devices like digital potentiometers and a DAC, as well as the ability to capture images and send emails using OpenCV. They also created a motion capture program that monitors a webcam for movement, triggering actions like alarm, image capture, email, and upload to a web server.
