Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTariq Al-khasib is a Software Engineering Manager in Sunnyvale with nine years of professional experience and a deep technical pedigree stemming from a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering. He moved from hands-on LTE/PHY firmware and modem performance engineering at BlackBerry and Samsung to backend and systems roles at Facebook/Meta, combining low-level telecom expertise with large-scale software delivery. At Meta he leads teams that operationalize complex networking and backend systems, drawing on past work building simulation tools, log analyzers, and performance optimizations for real-time embedded systems. An active contributor to the magma open-source project, he has implemented GRPC servers, integrated ZMQ messaging, and improved LTE gateway decoding and test infrastructure—showing he still ships high-impact code alongside managerial duties.
