Top SchoolSean Wang is a Technical Manager and embedded Linux specialist with nine years of experience building and upstreaming WiFi and Bluetooth drivers for MediaTek SoCs, and a longer track record in firmware, device drivers, and router platform integration. Based in San Jose, he has authored hundreds of upstream kernel patches (including full MT7921 support) and backported thousands more for ChromeOS branches, demonstrating expertise in bringing chipset code from FPGA/ASIC stages into mass production.
