Summary
Briana Oursler is a systems-oriented software engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building embedded and kernel-level software using C, C++, Rust, Python, Make, and Bash. She has contributed to Linux kernel networking self-tests through an Outreachy internship and has professional experience at Intel and Lockheed Martin developing low-level and embedded solutions. Briana pairs academic rigor from a Computer Science master’s program with practical automation and RPA experience, giving her a knack for both device-level troubleshooting and end-to-end process improvement. Based in Hillsboro, Oregon, she brings strong Linux expertise and a history of shipping testable, maintainable code in safety- and performance-conscious environments. An uncommon strength is her cross-domain background—from museum archives and customer-facing roles to teaching and technical automation—which surfaces in clear communication and pragmatic problem-solving.
