Jett Rink is a software engineer based in Boulder, Colorado with six years of experience building low-level and embedded systems. Currently at Hudson River Trading, he brings strong electrical and electronics engineering foundations from UT Austin (BS, 3.98 GPA) to software problems that intersect hardware and firmware. He is an active contributor to the well-known Tock embedded OS, where he implemented automatic group traits across UART, GPIO, I2C, and radio HILs and streamlined timer/alarm and driver modularity. Jett’s work emphasizes secure, modular driver design and practical abstractions that make hardware interfaces easier to compose and maintain. Colleagues describe him as meticulous in restructuring code and pragmatic about delivering incremental improvements that unlock larger system reliability gains. His blend of EE rigor and hands-on embedded software experience makes him effective at bridging silicon constraints and production-quality code.

Role in this project:
Embedded Systems Engineer / IoT Developer
Contributions:36 reviews, 61 commits, 29 PRs in 11 months
Contributions summary:Jett primarily contributed to the `tock/tock` repository, a secure embedded operating system for microcontrollers. Their work focused on implementing automatic group traits within the `uart`, `gpio`, `i2c`, `radio`, and other hardware abstraction layers (HIL). They also made code improvements including restructuring and the adding of new function, and made several adjustments to the timer and alarm functionalities. These changes enhance the system's modularity and streamline the implementation of hardware drivers.
