Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMartin Hintz is a systems engineer with over two decades of embedded-software experience, specializing in low-level C/C++ development, real-time OSes (QNX, Embedded Linux), and digital signal processing. He spent 12 years in safety-critical automotive (ISO 26262, MISRA C/C++) building high-performance middleware and a patented zero-copy shared-memory IPC protocol, and recently contributes to the Eclipse iceoryx project on zero-copy inter-process communication. Comfortable across the full development lifecycle, he blends stakeholder-driven design with hands-on driver development, performance optimization on ARM/DSP, and automated CI/testing pipelines. His background in wireless baseband and V2X signal processing gives him a rare combination of system-level IPC expertise and deep signal-processing intuition. He also prototypes in Rust and has implemented supply-chain checks against NIST CPEs, reflecting a pragmatic focus on security and maintainability. Based in Stuttgart, he brings both production-grade engineering discipline and a track record of shipping robust, real-time embedded systems.
