Top SchoolBoran Car is a seasoned technology leader with 16 years' experience building and operating complex, high-scale systems, currently serving as Chief Information Officer in London. He architects and runs end-to-end infrastructure for distributed fleets—most recently maintaining a mining control system for over 10,000 miners across containerised sites—combining software, PLC control and full-site network design. A pragmatic engineer who rose through embedded, firmware and cloud roles, he has led teams at Thales, Nokia and startups, bringing expertise in virtualization, observability, CI/CD and microservices. He also contributes to open-source tooling, notably enhancing OpenGL recording and hotkey integration in SimpleScreenRecorder, reflecting hands-on systems-level skill. As a cofounder and CTO-level operator, he blends strategic product thinking with low-level technical chops and a curiosity-driven "jack of all trades" approach. Trained in electrical and electronics engineering at KU Leuven and Zagreb, he is comfortable spanning ASIC/FPGA, embedded Linux and cloud-native stacks.

Contributions summary:Boran primarily focused on enhancing the SimpleScreenRecorder's OpenGL recording capabilities. Their work involved integrating hotkey support within the glinject component, enabling users to control recording through keyboard shortcuts. Significant code changes were made to incorporate a shared memory structure and timers to signal and detect changes in glinject to control recording, and to pass keycode information. These changes aimed to improve the functionality and user interaction of the screen recording software.
