Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlbert Casals is a Senior Software Engineer with 18 years of experience specializing in embedded Linux, systems automation, and infrastructure for large-scale testing and deployment. Based in Barcelona, he has designed and maintained custom Linux distributions for Raspberry Pi, automated QA and manufacturing pipelines, and run company-wide GitLab infrastructure at both startups and enterprise firms including IBM and Volta Networks. He blends low-level Linux expertise (packaging, QT/QML, kernel-adjacent work) with cloud and data-platform automation, having migrated ETL workloads to Databricks and created CI/CD-driven Python packages. A pragmatic open-source advocate, he built tools like xsysroot and pipaOS to automate builds and testing across Pi boards, demonstrating a knack for making complex systems reproducible. Known as a clear communicator and practical problem-solver, he also brings a curious DIY streak—building sensor-based alert systems and other physical integrations to bring software to life.
