Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSophie Levesque is a Senior Software Development Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience in C++ and Python, currently building graphics and compression tooling at AMD. She specializes in computer graphics and real-time rendering, with a background in VFX plug-ins for Maya and 3DS Max and hobby projects including a path tracer and real-time renderers. At AMD she drove meaningful performance gains and testing maturity in Compressonator—delivering SIMD-accelerated BC1 paths and Brotli-G integration—while mentoring junior engineers. Previously she developed scalable human-body avatar pipelines and Blender tooling, combining low-level optimization skills with practical automation for cloud workflows. Curious about system internals, she pairs performance-oriented engineering with a designer’s eye for visual fidelity and reproducible testing.
