Summary
🤩
RockstarAugusto Zanellato is a computer science student at UNIPD with nine years of hands-on experience in embedded systems and IoT firmware development. Based in Padua, he contributes to high-profile open-source projects like Flipper Zero and Meshtastic, where he has implemented NFC protocol support (ST25TB, Mifare Classic), added MyKey parsing, and improved sensor detection logic and broadcast behavior. His work blends low-level protocol expertise with pragmatic firmware refactoring and async/sync design improvements, demonstrating solid debugging and review-driven collaboration. Notably, he has enhanced production-readiness features such as production date parsing and flexible trigger types, reflecting attention to both edge-case reliability and real-world deployment constraints.

Flipper Zero firmware source code
Role in this project:
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:8 reviews, 8 PRs, 41 comments in 2 years 2 months
Contributions summary:Augusto primarily contributed to the firmware of the Flipper Zero, focusing on NFC-related protocols, particularly ST25TB and Mifare Classic. Their work included refining ST25TB poller functionality by introducing write support, reworking async/sync pollers, and fixing bugs, demonstrating a deep understanding of NFC communication protocols. They also added a MyKey parser to interpret and display data from MyKey cards. Further contributions involved bug fixes in other NFC protocols, such as Mifare Classic nested authentication, and improving production date parsing.

Sep 2024 - Sep 2024
This repository contains the official firmware for Meshtastic, an open-source, off-grid mesh communication system.
Role in this project:Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT DeveloperContributions:3 PRs, 7 comments, 1 issue in 7 days
Contributions summary:Augusto primarily contributed to the `DetectionSensorModule` within the Meshtastic firmware. Their work involved modifying the detection sensor's triggering mechanisms to provide more flexibility by incorporating different trigger types, including edge detection. They also refactored the code to correctly handle minimum broadcast intervals and state changes. The user also addressed review comments, merged in master, and updated protobufs.
