Ștefan Șicleru is an experienced software engineer with eight years focused on systems programming, embedded Linux, virtualization and reliability engineering, currently contributing at Thales after a multi-year tenure at Bitdefender. He helped build KVM-based memory introspection for Bitdefender—designing an EPTP switching mechanism and support for Intel #VE and VMFUNC—to enable outside-the-guest memory analysis, and has deep hands-on experience integrating SDKs and platform components for production security products. His background spans automotive BSPs, carrier-grade wireless drivers, bootloader/kernel bring-up and Yocto-based BSP integration, reflecting a pragmatic ability to move low-level proofs-of-concept into stable deliveries. Based in Bucharest, he combines a research-minded curiosity (MEng in Computer and Network Security) with a taste for numismatics and pistachio eclairs, hinting at meticulousness and a long-term view of value.
