Summary
Ishank Arora is a software engineer with nine years of experience, currently building embedded and systems software at Apple from Austin, Texas. He has a strong background in low-level systems and security, having replaced direct Thread Control Block access with API-driven designs that affect on-die coprocessors across Apple products, and previously prototyped user-space drivers and VFIO-based DMA solutions at Google. Ishank pairs academic depth—BS/BA and an MS in Computer Science from UT Austin—with hands-on research at TACC, bridging high-performance computing and embedded firmware. Curious by nature, he explores diverse technical topics beyond his core focus, which fuels pragmatic cross-team collaboration and rapid prototyping.
