Stephan Ferlin-reiter is a Principal Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building high-performance, user-facing systems from low-level device interfaces to browser-based real-time video effects. He led on-device video processing work at Google Meet—shipping widely used features like Light Adjustment and Studio Lighting—and has a strong background in C++ performance optimization, graphics, and cross-platform tooling from roles at Emerson, RTT and Intel. Based in Barcelona, he combines systems-level craftsmanship (profiling, I/O, concurrency) with pragmatic product integration, test automation, and developer ergonomics. He has repeatedly modernized legacy codebases, improved startup and runtime performance, and introduced automation to make teams more productive. A less obvious strength is his track record of designing domain-specific languages and plugin architectures, showing both deep technical design skills and an eye for extensibility.
