Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFelipe Tonello is a Staff Software Engineer with 13+ years of deep systems expertise, currently advancing spatial audio at Meta XR after leading Core Audio prototyping at Apple. He specializes in low-latency, concurrent and real-time systems across Linux, embedded platforms, and audio signal processing, and has maintained and contributed to Linux kernel subsystems including Sound, USB, and Bluetooth. Felipe has driven product development end-to-end—from prototyping and performance profiling to delivery and long-term maintenance—and led technical efforts that shipped hardware like ROLI’s Seaboard Grand. An active open-source maintainer with a long history of kernel and multimedia contributions, he brings a mathematician’s rigor to abstracting complex problems into manageable components. Based in London, he combines hands-on low-level engineering with product-minded systems design and intentionally prefers to focus on his current work rather than external opportunities.
