Summary
Braden Stefanuk is a Senior Software Development Engineer with a physics background and six years of experience building AI-enabled, GPU-accelerated systems and robotics software. Currently at AMD after roles developing autonomy and machine learning solutions for maritime and space robotics, he blends research rigor from a Master's in ECE with hands-on engineering in Rust, automation, IoT, and embedded platforms. He has a track record of turning hard problems into production-ready systems, from live-cell imaging data analysis to autonomous vessel stacks. Based in Calgary, he pairs deep technical curiosity with practical delivery, and—less obviously—brings discipline from decade-long piano training to structured, creative problem solving.
