Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Granhão is a Senior Software Engineer with 7 years of experience combining embedded systems research and production Rust services, currently pursuing a Ph.D. and working on efficient hardware architectures for neural network training and inference. He has moved seamlessly between academia and industry—implementing LSTM training/inference in plain C for HLS at INESC and teaching computer architecture and ARM assembly at FEUP, where he earned a pedagogical award. More recently he led the design of Rust libraries and event-driven network services for Lipa, enabling a full Lightning node on mobile and standardizing access to Bitcoin/Lightning infrastructure. Based in Vila do Conde, Portugal, he blends low-level hardware insight with modern systems engineering and a pragmatic focus on deployable, resource-constrained ML acceleration. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of turning research-grade C prototypes into reusable code and production-ready Rust components.
