Summary
🤩
RockstarIlya Guterman is a Senior System Engineer based in Tokyo with 11 years of experience building embedded Linux systems, automotive software stacks, and distributed communications. He drives OEM transformation at Woven by Toyota, integrating Yocto, Bazel, modern LLVM toolchains and SELinux to deliver software-defined vehicle platforms. Previously he led architecture and cross-compilation efforts at Samsung NEXT, built high-throughput processing and detection pipelines at PerimeterX, and developed embedded and ROS-based systems for autonomous drones. A pragmatic engineer who values impact over intent, he pairs low-level C/C++ and kernel work with Rust and Go for utilities and tooling. Ilya is an active open-source contributor—his contributions to the popular libratbag project added HIDPP20 support for LED and onboard profile management—showing a taste for hardware-adjacent software. He experiments with new languages and Linux distros, blending curiosity with production-grade rigor across tooling, security, and performance.
