Antonin Hildebrand is a versatile developer with 25 years of experience who evolved from Windows game and 3D engine programming into Mac-focused web and tooling work. Currently at BinaryAge, he builds developer-oriented software and browser extensions, with deep experience across C++, OpenGL, WinAPI, web front-ends and localization. He contributes to high-performance open-source projects—fixing complex blockchain parsing bugs in BlockSci—and has extensive hands-on experience shipping tools, editors and localized UIs. Trained in computer graphics and mathematics at Charles University, he combines low-level systems rigor with pragmatic web and UX sensibilities, and quietly specializes in niche hacks like SIMBL-based macOS integrations.
