Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIvan Podogov is a Lead Staff Software Engineer based in London with 13 years of experience building high-performance systems across embedded, mobile and cloud platforms. He blends deep low-level C++ expertise—tuning algorithms, CPU cache behavior and SIMD interleaving—with recent leadership roles at The Trade Desk and senior engineering work on Wear OS and Android Management at Google. His hands-on background spans performance-critical banner systems at Yandex to pragmatic hardware-adjacent contributions in the Armbian build ecosystem, where he fixed wireless driver issues and board configs for ARM devices. Equally comfortable leading teams or diving into kernel and build-tool details, he’s actively returning to the kind of highly optimized systems work that originally defined his craft.
