Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience in C++ development across the full stack: from real-time embedded systems to cross-platform microservices. I specialize in C/C++ development with proven expertise in RTOS systems (QP-RTOS, FreeRTOS), performance optimization, hardware debugging, cross-platform development (Windows and Linux). I also use Python for tooling and automation. Recent impact at Mozarc Medical: Led migration from C++03 to C++14 and reduced communication framework overhead by 50%. Established code review practices and mentored junior developers. Collaborated with international teams across Minneapolis, Mirandola, and Bangalore on FDA-regulated medical device software. I've worked in both agile startups with direct customer interaction and large international corporations with cross-functional engineering teams, giving me perspective on software development at different scales. Outside work, I maintain open-source projects (game engine, cross-platform leak detector) and share modern C++ practices through my YouTube channel "TheStandardGuy."
