Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Laverty is a Senior Software Engineer based in Sydney with three years of professional experience building safety-critical communications and control software for aerospace, defence, and automotive systems. He has delivered embedded and avionics software across projects including a Level D full flight simulator for the RAAF and an immersive tactical trainer for Australia's M1A2 SEPv3 tanks, combining low-level firmware expertise with system-level integration. His background spans bare-metal ECU development, building building-control firmware for lighting and HVAC, and certifiable simulation software, giving him a rare blend of hard real-time and simulation domain knowledge. Jack’s work emphasizes robustness and deterministic behaviour in motion-control contexts, and he brings practical hands-on engineering from prototype firmware to accredited, mission‑grade systems. Despite a compact career timeline, he has repeatedly moved between embedded constraints and complex systems engineering, making him effective at turning ambiguous requirements into auditable, deployable solutions.
