Summary
Andrada Zoltan is a Senior Design Engineer with nine years’ experience designing high-performance FPGA and embedded software systems, especially for space and imaging applications. She’s led end-to-end satellite OBC development (ORCASat) and contributed firmware, bootloader and over-the-air update systems that proved flight-ready in LEO. Her hands-on work spans FPGA IP for RFSoC/MPSoC devices, ISP pipelines for ultra-high-speed cameras, Linux driver development, and real-time SAR processing—bridging hardware and software to resolve cross-domain issues quickly. Based in Vancouver and a UBC Computer Engineering alumna, she pairs rigorous engineering discipline (MISRA/JPL-aware firmware) with practical prototyping and test automation. Colleagues rely on her ability to translate algorithms into efficient RTL/C implementations and to tame tricky timing, cross-clock, and calibration problems that surface in complex imaging and space systems.
