I'm a computer engineering student based in Brazil, currently doing my undergrad at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. I also have an electronics technician degree, where I got my feet wet with electronics! I love to thinker around building my projects, especially those embedded-related.
During my spare time, I also operate an amateur radio station under the callsign PY3PK 📡
👨🏻💻 About Me
- 🔭 I'm currently working as a Associate Software Developer @ Canonical, researching power and performance optimizations for new Intel platforms. In the past, I also helped NVIDIA port Ubuntu for their automotive platforms.
- 🌱 I’m currently studying high-performance computing and computer architecture, focusing mostly on heterogeneous architectures and low-energy designs. In my spare time, I also research microarchitectural vulnerabilities.
- 📝 In the past, I've worked with PCB design and firmware development (STM32/NRF52832) for personal projects and done research on fault tolerance at the Embedded Systems Laboratory @ UFRGS. I've also worked on IoT devices at Beyond Domotics, DeepX and balena, developing both software (MQTT/InfluxDB/Grafana/Python/Typescript/Embedded Linux) and hardware (KiCad/ESP8266/Variscite SOMs) professionally.
