Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon Schneider is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building systems and backend services—primarily for telecom—using C/C++, Java, Python, and Go. He combines deep Linux and virtualization knowledge (KVM, Docker, Kubernetes) with practical DevOps skills, having led containerization prototypes that proved containers viable for latency-sensitive RAN workloads. Simon has moved between hands-on roles and tech-lead positions at companies like Ericsson, Netlight and Instabox, delivering prototypes that span ML-powered moderation, geo-data mapping, and cloud-native orchestration. Comfortable across the stack, he prefers backend and systems work but pursues pet projects from ops to frontend in his free time, which keeps his toolkit broad and current. Known for a collaborative, knowledge-sharing style and strong problem-solving instincts, he excels in agile teams and in translating complex requirements into production-ready prototypes. Based in Solna, Sweden, he pairs a Master’s in Engineering Physics with a proven ability to learn new platforms and tackle performance- and security-focused challenges.
