Summary
Brock Boehler is a SoC Embedded Firmware Engineer with eight years’ experience building high-performance firmware at the intersection of hardware and software, currently contributing to SoC firmware development at Apple in the San Francisco Bay Area. He brings deep computer architecture knowledge and hands-on digital hardware background from roles at Western Digital—where he supported ASIC/SoC bringups, driver firmware for controllers and accelerators, and performance debugging—and early work on autonomous delivery and IoT systems. Known for writing simulation and test code that bridges silicon and software, Brock excels at turning complex hardware constraints into optimized, reliable embedded solutions. His 3.82 GPA Computer Engineering degree from UIUC underpins a disciplined, systems-driven approach that pairs curiosity with practical debug and optimization skills often overlooked in firmware engineers.
