Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Filippov is a multidisciplinary engineering lead with eight years of experience blending audio production and systems engineering, currently heading ERP Support at Filuet. Trained in sound engineering and interactive media (Oxford Brookes, University of Westminster), he pairs deep audio implementation skills (FMOD, Wwise, Unity, Unreal) with hands-on technical problem solving from embedded/IoT work. His contributions to the OpenBMC project show he can navigate low-level firmware build systems—preventing unbootable images and stabilizing services—bringing reliability-focused thinking to both software and audio pipelines. A longtime freelance sound designer and audio programmer, he has shipped sound systems for games, VR, TV and commercials while also managing studio and production workflows. Colleagues know him for pragmatic cross-domain solutions that bridge creative audio design and operational engineering. He often surfaces non-obvious fixes by reasoning across disciplines—from package splits and systemd tweaks to nuanced audio implementation choices.
