Senior
🎓
Top School
Joris Putcuyps is a seasoned software engineer with 15 years of experience specializing in C++, Rust and Haskell across embedded and Unix-like platforms. He brings deep expertise in cross-platform design, build and test automation, and low-level embedded toolchains for AVR, PIC, ARM and MSP430 devices. At Green Island and earlier roles he has focused on pragmatic, maintainable systems engineering while contributing to notable open-source projects like Conan and the Conan Center Index, where he fixed compiler detection issues and improved recipes for embedded C++ libraries such as etl and ArduinoJson. Comfortable navigating both hardware-near constraints and higher-level CI/test ecosystems, he’s known for resolving subtle build and dependency problems that improve reproducibility across toolchains. Based in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium, he combines industrial electromechanics training with a software-first mindset, making him adept at bridging firmware, tooling and application-level concerns.
