Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlvaro Garay is a computer scientist and software engineer with a decade of experience specializing in compilers, programming languages, reverse engineering, and static analysis. He builds robust analysis tooling—custom disassemblers, AST builders, pattern compilers and type inference systems—targeting diverse binary formats and architectures like x86 and ARM. Comfortable in Python and Go, he delivers performance-tuned tooling, REST APIs, and asynchronous pipelines, and automates deployment with Docker-based pipelines. Currently an assistant professor teaching Algorithms and Data Structures at Universidad Nacional de Córdoba while working at Eclypsium, he bridges academic rigor and industry practice in firmware and binary analysis. His open-source contributions range from classic game ports to low-level C data-structure utilities, reflecting a pragmatic interest in both pedagogy and performant systems. He enjoys turning intricate analysis problems into maintainable, scalable tools—often by codifying heuristics into reusable compilers and matchers.
