Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlexandru Soponar is an embedded software engineer and self-taught full-stack developer with eight years of hands-on experience building embedded Linux systems, web backends, and cross-platform mobile apps from Cluj-Napoca. He has delivered production-ready Yocto/BitBake images, integrated AI models and camera pipelines using OpenCV, WebRTC and V4L2, and designed telemetry plugins to optimize feeds for inference. As a founding engineer he sped time-to-market with DevSecOps and CI/CD automation, and has a track record of rapid prototyping—shipping a closed beta in 12 days and cutting deployments from days to minutes. Alexandru has also contributed to low-level tooling at the LLVM Foundation, improving compiler checks and AArch64 optimizations, showing a comfort with both systems-level detail and higher-level product delivery. He thrives on cross-disciplinary problems that span hardware, firmware, and user-facing services, and brings a pragmatic, tinkerer mindset—tech enthusiasm that runs in his veins—to every project.
