Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Heilmann is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience, currently building content metadata systems at Tubi from his base in Florida. He has a strong systems and full-stack background—ranging from distributed Elixir services and GraphQL frontends at Second Spectrum to low-level C++ drivers, AUTOSAR-enabled lidar processing, and cross-platform tooling at Luminar. Michael has repeatedly combined product ownership and hands-on engineering, leading teams that deliver middleware, networking, and visualization products for both internal users and external customers. His career blends research-driven development (UCF virtual world projects) with production-grade embedded and cloud services, demonstrating fluency across Python, C#, C++, Typescript, and Elixir. He’s comfortable shipping in constrained environments (embedded/AARCH64/DriveOS/QNX) and scaling up to realtime distributed pipelines (websockets, RabbitMQ, Absinthe). An unusual strength is his track record of turning research prototypes into supported products—bridging academia, startup, and enterprise needs.
