Summary
Alex Painter is an Embedded Software Engineer with eight years of experience building and validating silicon-to-system solutions, currently developing embedded software at Apple after three years in SoC design verification. Trained in Electrical Engineering at Cal Poly (3.92 GPA), he blends low-level firmware development, hardware design understanding, and hands-on verification to close the loop between silicon, firmware, and product. His internships at Medtronic and Stryker exposed him to medical device power systems, RFID/NFC hardware and C-driven firmware, giving him practical experience across regulated and high-frequency RF domains. At Cal Poly he led a 12-person team converting and managing accessible media, an early sign of his operational leadership and process ownership. Comfortable in fast-paced, multidisciplinary environments, he brings a pragmatic engineering mindset that favors measurable quality and reproducible results.
