Senior🎓
Top SchoolSander Huijsen is a versatile embedded software engineer and educator with 12 years of professional experience, currently balancing roles as an Embedded Software Engineer at Imdex and a budding EDM producer in Perth. He brings deep firmware and systems expertise—from low-level C/C++ and microcontroller work to cloud-connected IoT and Android development—and has repeatedly led cross-disciplinary teams and coaching initiatives. As an open-source contributor, he improved CANopen PDO mapping and timestamp logic in a widely used Python CAN library, showing attention to protocol correctness and maintainability. Sander’s background includes founding his own consultancy and lecturing vocational students, so he pairs hands-on technical delivery with curriculum design and mentoring. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic and curious, equally comfortable delving into bitfields or composing synth patches in his spare time.
