Summary
Guilherme Paulino is a detector research staff engineer with 8 years of experience designing and delivering high-performance X-ray and photon-counting imaging systems across national labs and industry. Based in Menlo Park, he has led embedded systems teams and acted as design authority for hybrid pixel detectors, combining FPGA architecture, RDMA/100GbE integration, and real-time embedded C++ firmware. His work spans applied research at CERN and SLAC, product engineering for large-area cameras using Medipix detectors, and hands-on testing/automation with Python and Linux. Guilherme’s background in telecommunications and electrical engineering informs a systems-level approach that bridges photonics, FPGA design, and software for scientific instrumentation. He’s comfortable taking projects from architecture definition through lab validation, and has repeatedly translated research prototypes into production-ready hardware and firmware. Less obvious: he pairs accelerator-timing and networking knowledge (White Rabbit, RoCE, CXL) with practical experience in integrated photonics control stacks.
