Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMohamed Maklad is a Senior Software Engineer with eight years of experience specializing in low-level systems and Windows graphics/power drivers, currently driving resume-time and dGPU wake-up optimizations at AMD. He combines a formal Computer Engineering education from McMaster with hands-on firmware and driver work, having reduced Modern Standby resume times by up to 65% in earlier roles and delivered a 40% latency improvement more recently. His background spans embedded firmware, C/C++ driver development, and cross-component collaboration with hardware and firmware teams to enable platform power features. Outside corporate work he applies machine learning and web development skills from university projects—building neural nets for audio tasks and a real-time class engagement app that saved his department significant costs. Raised across Egypt, the U.S., and Canada, he brings a persistent maker’s curiosity (from taking apart electronics as a child) to disciplined, measurement-driven optimization of complex systems.
