Summary
Bilal Salha is a Senior Software Engineer at SpaceX with a 6-year track record building low-level, high-reliability systems for embedded and flight software. He combines deep firmware and kernel expertise—embedded C, TCP/HTTP socket programming, Linux drivers, NVMe implementation—with hardware design skills in Verilog/VHDL and analog circuit work. Bilal co-founded ReliablePlugins, where he engineered Java bytecode injection, licensing, and anti-tamper security for commercial game plugins, demonstrating both product-focused engineering and reverse-engineering skill. His background in applied physics and an active interest in theoretical high-energy particle physics inform a rigorous, first-principles approach to complex systems. Based in Redmond, he brings a rare full-stack embedded-to-kernel-to-hardware fluency that accelerates development of mission-critical devices.
