Roman Buldygin is a senior software engineer based in Saint Petersburg with 11 years of experience building embedded and IoT systems, currently working at the Center for Speech Technologies. He has a strong background in real-time multimedia and camera integration—demonstrated by contributions to the OpenHD project where he added libcamera support, hardware encoder handling, and GStreamer pipelines to improve drone video streaming. His career spans product-focused development at Kontur and embedded SmartPTT work, combining hands-on C/C++/Linux systems expertise with practical deployment know-how. Roman also brings academic depth from Tomsk Polytechnic University (including postgraduate study) and an internship at KIT, reflecting a habit of blending research-minded problem solving with production engineering. Colleagues value him for steadily delivering low-level integrations that unlock new hardware capabilities rather than flashy front-end features.
