Senior C++ / AI Systems / Embedded Linux Engineer
EU UK US · Full remote · Open to B2B / contractor / full-time roles
I build performance-critical software across low-latency systems, Linux, embedded devices, robotics, AI media pipelines and cloud backends.
My strongest area is connecting low-level engineering with production systems: C++, Linux, distributed protocols, observability, embedded firmware, robotics, GPU workloads and AI product infrastructure.
- Low-latency C++ systems for performance-critical applications
- Linux/eBPF observability tools and process-level network metrics
- Embedded Linux, firmware and robotics systems
- AI media generation pipelines and GPU-backed inference tools
- Backend systems that connect real-world devices, cloud services and user-facing products
Lightweight eBPF daemon that tracks outbound TCP/UDP activity per process and exports Prometheus metrics.
Why it matters: useful for Linux observability, performance debugging and process-level network monitoring.
Tech: eBPF · Linux · Prometheus · Shell · Observability
Realtime single-GPU LTX-2 engine prototype for AI media generation.
Why it matters: explores realtime generative media pipelines and GPU-bound inference workflows.
Tech: C++ · GPU · Generative AI · Realtime media
Docker-based delivery routing demo with C++ routing service, OSRM, Postgres and Flask/Leaflet live visualization.
Why it matters: demonstrates backend architecture, routing optimization, service orchestration and real-time visualization.
Tech: C++ · Docker · Postgres · OSRM · Flask · Leaflet
Languages: C, C++, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Java/Kotlin
Systems: Linux, eBPF, distributed systems, low-latency optimization, protocol design
Embedded: STM32, ESP32, PIC24, FreeRTOS, Yocto, Buildroot, V4L2, camera drivers
AI: LLM tooling, RAG, embeddings, PyTorch, generative media pipelines
Cloud/backend: Google Cloud, serverless GPU infrastructure, APIs, observability
Product: robotics, IoT, audio/video systems, AI media platforms
I work best on complex systems where performance, reliability and architecture matter.
I am comfortable moving across layers: firmware, Linux, C++ services, backend APIs, cloud infrastructure and AI pipelines.
Available for full remote work from EU timezone.
