Stefan Waldschmidt is an embedded engineer with 11 years of professional experience designing high-quality, high-performance software at the intersection of hardware and software. He has built real-time, safety- and throughput-sensitive systems across medical devices, measurement instruments, broadcast playout, and RAID storage, with deep expertise in C/C++, microcontrollers (STM32), assembler, RTOS, multi-threading, GPU acceleration and programmable logic. Stefan emphasizes rigorous OOA/OOD, CI and unit testing to deliver maintainable embedded firmware and networked system services. His background spans both low-level optimization—assembler/SSE and GPU shaders for image acceleration—and system-level engineering like IP services and SAN/cluster storage. Based in Darmstadt, he pairs academic roots in parallel computing with long-term industry experience shipping mission-critical products. A practical problem-solver, he often operates where software constraints are driven directly by hardware limits, squeezing determinism and throughput from constrained platforms.
