Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAleksandr Timofeev is a senior software engineer based in Belgrade with over a decade of experience building cross-platform C++ and Python systems, particularly for embedded and avionics testing. He has deep expertise in Qt/QML, ASIO/Boost.Beast servers, multithreaded executors, and standards like MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC-429, having led development and CI migrations at an aerospace firm. Aleksandr has hands-on experience modernizing toolchains—migrating Visual Studio projects to CMake, integrating Conan for package management, and running Docker Swarm-based CI—which accelerated cross-platform Linux adoption. An active open-source contributor and package maintainer in the Conan ecosystem, he’s helped package and validate popular C++ libraries (Catch2, EnTT, Abseil) and improved Conan’s search and config behaviors. He pairs systems-level rigor from a master’s in microsystem computer technologies with practical product delivery, from realtime Simulink integrations to touchscreen UIs. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic engineer who surfaces subtle build and compatibility issues before they become problems.
