Summary
Po-chun Chang is a Principal Engineer based in Taiwan with eight years of experience designing embedded systems with a strong emphasis on functional safety (ISO 26262, IEC 61508) and cybersecurity. He has led system bring-up and in-system memory verification at AP Memory Technology and architected SIL-2 safety solutions for servo motors and SSD controllers at Mantis Robotics and Phison. His background spans firmware, DSP on TI C28x, safety-certified SDKs audited by TÜV, DevOps for embedded CI/CD, and security work like enabling SELinux on constrained Linux builds. Po-chun combines hands-on PCB/ADC/EMC design and power-FSM expertise with higher-level safety process work such as ASPICE adaptation and safety training. He also has a research pedigree from UW–Madison building LLVM checkers and QEMU-based emulation, which informs his rigorous approach to fault injection and automatic test generation. Colleagues rely on him to bridge low-level electronics, real-time firmware, and certified safety/cybersecurity practices in complex products.
