Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSergey Kosarevsky is a graphics engineer with 14 years of experience building 3D rendering systems for mobile, desktop, and embedded platforms, currently based in Mountain View. He coauthored the Vulkan and 3D Graphics Rendering Cookbooks and has led rendering teams at Ubisoft RedLynx and headed core technology at Layar, Blippar, and TWNKLS, bridging research-level knowledge with product delivery. His open-source work includes meaningful contributions to the Khronos glslang project (improving the C/SPIR-V interface) and maintaining OpenGL example code and tooling in the Packt publishing cookbook repository. Sergey’s background in mechanical engineering (top marks) and a PhD in engineering underpin a methodical, optimization-focused approach to graphics and systems design. He’s as comfortable refactoring low-level C interfaces as integrating modern model-optimization libraries like meshoptimizer and assimp, which reflects an uncommon blend of academic rigor and hands-on engineering.

KhronosGroup/glslang
Oct 2019 - May 2022
Khronos-reference front end for GLSL/ESSL, partial front end for HLSL, and a SPIR-V generator.
Role in this project:Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:2 reviews, 16 commits, 7 PRs in 2 years 7 months
Contributions summary:Sergey primarily contributed to the C interface of the `glslang` project. Their work involved implementing and refactoring the C interface, as evidenced by the addition of include callbacks and the implementation of a C interface for the SPIR-V generator. They fixed warnings related to implicit casts and performed code formatting. The user added enhancements such as `glslang_program_SPIRV_get_ptr()` and static assertions, indicating an effort to improve the interface's functionality and robustness.
