Embedded Firmware Engineer @Quantum Computing Inc.

Hoboken, NJ, US

Designed, built, and deployed PetaLinux BSPs and SDKs for AMD/Xilinx ZCU102 and ZTDC boards, enabling stable bring-up and cross-compiled application development.• Architected and optimized a C++ XDMA API with hybrid chunking, aligned memory buffers, and mutex synchronization, achieving up to 3.99 GB/s throughput—near the theoretical hardware maximum. •Implemented loopback testing frameworks in C++ and Bash with automated regression runs, integrated linear regression–based performance analysis, and validated results using ILA/FIFO hardware debugging. • Developed and validated device drivers for SPI DACs (AD5766), AWG (LTC1668), and MEMS Mirror Control, incorporating waveform generation, ramping logic, and synchronization with digital delay generators and PMTs. • Created a Cython wrapper for the DMA API to support higher-level Python workflows, enabling flexible automation, rapid prototyping, and testbench integration.• Produced detailed system documentation, architecture overviews, and benchmarking reports to support internal teams and future platform development.
