Top SchoolRobson Pontin is a Software Engineer II based in Vancouver with nine years of professional software experience and a 15+ year technical background spanning industrial automation to modern Windows and cross-platform UI development. He currently contributes at Microsoft and previously led native platform SDK work at PDFTron, driving Windows SDK, UWP/WinUI and React Native for Windows efforts that supported a top-rated Xodo PDF Reader with hundreds of thousands of monthly users. Robson combines deep embedded and field engineering experience—PLC, motion control, machine vision and VFD commissioning—with strong desktop and native app skills in C++, C#, .NET and modern Windows runtimes. He routinely bridges product, R&D and customer-facing roles to turn market research and user feedback into monetization and product-differentiating features. Comfortable across low-level firmware to high-level UI, he brings pragmatic engineering discipline from international project delivery and 24/7 customer support. An engineer who learned in the field, he’s equally at home debugging industrial controllers on site as shipping polished SDKs for global developer audiences.
