Senior🎓
Top SchoolSzymon Duchniewicz is a PhD student and software engineer with nine years of experience specializing in embedded systems, operating systems, and secure IoT development, fluent in C, Rust, and Python. He blends academic rigor from UCL and UNSW with hands-on ports of Zephyr RTOS and practical OS engineering work, alongside R&D contributions at Avanade and the Green Software Foundation. Szymon co-chairs the Carbon Aware SDK project and has built carbon-aware demos for Kubernetes+Dapr, reflecting a strong interest in sustainability-driven tooling. Equally at home prototyping in Unity and 3D printing, he brings a maker’s curiosity to both low-level systems and ML/NLP experiments. Outside engineering, he’s a certified wind- and kitesurfing instructor—an unusual combination that underscores his teamwork, teaching experience, and appetite for real-world problem solving.
