Summary
Zheondre Calcano is a Satellite Communications Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building embedded firmware, cloud automation, and security testing tools across aerospace, defense, and consumer platforms. He has shipped C/C++ firmware and device drivers for ARM Cortex-M systems in unmanned vehicles, written Python tooling for QA and automation, and more recently authored fuzzers and Azure automation for Chromium and Edge crypto components. Now at Amazon working on satellite communications, he blends low-level hardware debugging skills with cloud-native practices in AWS and Azure. Comfortable across Rust, C/C++, and Python, he is equally at home reading oscilloscope traces as tuning CI/CD pipelines. Notably, his background spans both product-facing firmware on drones and security-focused fuzzing at Microsoft, giving him a rare combined expertise in embedded systems and vulnerability discovery. Based in Boston, he brings practical, test-driven engineering to hard real-time and cloud-connected problems.
