Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKevin Stichter is a Senior Software Engineer based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building production C++ systems, embedded firmware, and cross-platform SDKs for companies from medical devices to large consumer platforms. He has driven architecture and technical design at Facebook and Twitch, led cross-team refactors to improve testability and developer experience, and shipped safety‑critical firmware used in FDA submissions and city-approved scooter deployments. Kevin blends low-level performance work (profiling with Valgrind, reducing CPU use dramatically) with higher-level patterns (MVVM, dependency injection, JNI bindings) and a history of mentoring and enforcing coding standards that measurably improved team throughput. He’s comfortable across embedded RTOS, Linux, Android, and cloud-connected clients, and brings a pragmatic focus on test automation, modular APIs, and reproducible builds (Bazel). A less obvious strength is his knack for translating regulatory and multidisciplinary requirements into maintainable software architectures that survive audits and real-world constraints.
