Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrejs Hanins is a pragmatic software engineer with 11 years of deep C/C++ experience and a growing focus on functional programming in Haskell, currently building high-load Rust backends. He has designed and implemented core middleware for consumer mesh routers at Ubiquiti and cross-platform SDKs for unmanned systems, with strong expertise in Linux, embedded systems, TCP/IP, multithreading and distributed high-availability architectures. Comfortable across user space, kernel-adjacent fast paths and multicore optimizations, he repeatedly turns complex networking requirements into robust, production-ready software. An active troubleshooter and bugfixer, he contributes low-level fixes to the widely used libwebsockets project, addressing real-world socket and protocol edge cases. His engineering motto—understand not just how things work but how they fail—drives a pragmatic, resilient design approach. Based in Riga, Latvia, he pairs systems-level rigor with a steady curiosity for new paradigms and languages.
