Matt Popovich is a software engineer with a decade of experience building embedded systems, FPGA-based digital designs, and productionized AI for RF signal processing. After earning a B.S. in Computer Engineering and an M.S. from Johns Hopkins while working at Northrop Grumman, he led AI efforts that moved PyTorch-trained models into C++ inference pipelines and offloaded compute to Xilinx FPGAs. Comfortable across C++, Python, VHDL/Verilog and system integration, he blends low-level firmware and hardware work with machine learning applied to resilience and signal classification. Now based in San Francisco and consulting through Redpoint Engineering, he pairs rigorous engineering discipline with a continual appetite for learning—most recently in finance and decentralized assets—which informs a pragmatic, metrics-driven approach to productizing models.
