Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Webb is a Senior Embedded Software Engineer with 10 years of experience designing firmware for microcontrollers, ASICs and occasional FPGA work, fluent in Rust, C++, C and daily Python/Bash scripting. He has driven product improvements across commercial and academic settings—from parallelised signal processing and reduced startup latency on metal detectors to architectural refactors that improved testability and hardware decoupling. A First Class Honours BComp graduate and former PhD candidate at University of South Australia, he blends research-led thinking with practical, production-focused engineering. Comfortable across the stack of embedded systems, drivers and tooling, he prefers non-defence commercial projects and brings a track record of modernising legacy codebases and shipping robust, testable firmware. An understated strength is his experience translating academic research into tangible product features and developer-friendly libraries.
