Summary
🤩
RockstarIrene is a multidisciplinary engineer-in-training with a decade of hands-on experience bridging electronics and software, currently studying ECE at RMIT and aviation at Swinburne in Naarm on Kulin Nation. She contributes to high-impact open-source autonomy software—notably as an embedded systems engineer on comma.ai’s openpilot—where she implemented Toyota integrations, CAN interfacing, and safety-relevant signal work across many vehicle models. Comfortable in low-level firmware and vehicle networks, she pairs practical embedded expertise with academic study in avionics, bringing cross-domain thinking to mobility and control systems. Colleagues describe her as a curious coder who tackles messy real-world integration problems and learns by doing across automotive and aviation domains.
