Top SchoolTobias Pristupin is a software engineer with nine years of hands-on experience spanning systems programming, compilers/kernel work, mobile apps, and real-time trading systems. He combines a dual academic background in computer science and mathematics from Washington University in St. Louis with practical internships at Facebook and Stripe where he shipped scalable Android and service-architecture improvements that materially reduced latency and supported large rollouts.

He has research experience in Linux PMU analysis and real-time scheduling, and has taught systems software as head TA, showing both technical depth and a talent for mentorship.
