Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLuca Weiss is an Android and Linux Kernel engineer based in Amsterdam with 11 years of hands-on experience building platform-level software and mobile applications. Currently at Fairphone, he bridges Android platform work with low-level kernel development and power management for embedded Qualcomm platforms. A long-time open-source contributor and core maintainer at postmarketOS, Luca has notable contributions to the upstream Linux kernel—working on the remoteproc subsystem and qcom_q6v5 drivers for widely used SoCs—and to device-support projects like OpenRazer. He brings a pragmatic blend of Android app engineering, BLE/IoT experience, and deep kernel debugging skills, often tackling platform-specific power and modem integration challenges that many application engineers never see. Colleagues rely on him for durable, hardware-aware solutions that keep devices usable and repairable over the long term.
