Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMatt Schulte is a software engineer with 12 years of experience specializing in embedded systems and strong C expertise, currently working at Google out of Ann Arbor. He has shipped firmware and embedded Linux across consumer devices and mixed-reality platforms, including contributions to Microsoft Hololens HPU firmware and Wyze camera platforms. Matt blends hands-on low-level development with build/CI automation—improving the Azure Kinect SDK CI, enabling cross-platform NASM builds, and hardening CMake configurations. He’s led small reliability-focused teams (Cloudflare’s Zero Trust desktop client) and thrives on optimizing build systems and reducing duplicate compilation work. Comfortable across languages and toolchains, he prefers writing code that runs on non-traditional “computers” and quickly learns new stacks to solve hardware-adjacent problems. Outside product work he has a background in hardware security research and teaching, reflecting a mix of practical shipping experience and academic curiosity.
