Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDeclan Snyder is a Staff Embedded Software Engineer based in Austin with three years of hands-on experience building and upstreaming firmware for NXP microcontrollers and contributing to the Zephyr RTOS. He authored and upstreamed eMMC protocol middleware to Zephyr, helped develop a wide range of platform drivers (UART, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, ADC/DAC, timers, clocks), and served as NXP’s voting member in the Zephyr Architecture Working Group. Now at Analog Devices, he blends deep upstream open-source collaboration with pragmatic platform enablement for silicon vendors. Colleagues describe him as a developer who not only writes drivers but also establishes team processes to streamline upstream development flows, reflecting a rare mix of low-level technical skill and community-facing engineering.
