Senior🎓
Top SchoolArtem Senichev is a lead software engineer with 20+ years in IT and deep expertise in operating systems, low-level and embedded development, currently driving firmware and Linux device driver work for RISC-V SoCs at YADRO. He brings hands-on experience across boot loaders, BIOS/UEFI, OpenBMC, OpenPOWER build systems and kernel-level programming, with strong C/C++ skills and proficiency in Rust, Python and shell tooling. Artem has a track record of system bring-up and hardware enablement—adding platform-specific support such as LEDs, VPD, NCSI channel selection and diagnostic enhancements to prominent projects like OpenBMC and op-build. He pairs production firmware development with virtualization work in QEMU and maintains his own open-source projects while contributing to upstream communities. Notably, his past work includes implementing crypto algorithms as a Linux kernel Crypto API module and porting projects across multiple architectures (ARM, MIPS, PPC, e2k), underscoring breadth across platforms. Based in Moscow, he combines pragmatic engineering with an enthusiast’s commitment to open source and tooling polish (yes, he even knows how to exit Vim).
