Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJeroen Dobbelaere is a senior software engineering manager based in the Antwerp metropolitan area with over two decades of experience building compilers, processor toolchains, and virtual platform tools for embedded and DSP architectures. He currently leads Synopsys teams that maintain and extend LLVM- and GCC-based compilers for ARC, VPX and RISC-V targets and drives the compiler and runtime work for an NPU-optimized MetaWare Neural Network SDK. His background blends hands-on compiler engineering (alias analysis, clang/LLVM extensions, non-power-of-two register support, "Full Restrict" work) with processor modeling and RTL generation from high-level ASIP/LISA descriptions. Jeroen has shipped toolchain innovations like JIT-accelerated simulators and distributed test drivers and holds patents related to simulation address mapping, reflecting a focus on practical performance and tooling scale. He is as comfortable presenting at LLVM conferences and leading community tech calls as he is designing instruction schedulers for VLIW and SIMD processors. Colleagues rely on him to translate deep architecture constraints into robust, production-grade compiler and runtime solutions.
