Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSandeep Raju is a Senior Member of Technical Staff specializing in Yocto Project and embedded Linux with over 18 years’ experience in embedded systems and 8 years focused on Yocto/OpenEmbedded at AMD and Xilinx. He architects and maintains AMD Xilinx Yocto/meta layers, device-tree generators, Trusted Firmware-A, kernels and U-Boot, enabling smooth board bring-up across Zynq and UltraScale+ platforms. Comfortable from low-level device-tree bindings and drivers to build-system integration, he combines hands-on debugging of custom hardware with upstream contributions that reduce bring-up friction. His open-source work on the Xilinx device-tree generator shows a practical focus on hardware description correctness for complex IP like MIPI CSI-2, Ethernet and HDMI. Based in Longmont, Colorado, he pairs rigorous academic training in embedded systems with a track record of shipping production-ready patches and maintainership across multiple embedded ecosystems. Notably, he bridges vendor tooling (PetaLinux/Vivado) and upstream projects to keep platform bring-up reproducible and portable.
