Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSimon Symeonidis is an Embedded System Engineer with 13 years of experience building and rejuvenating backend and low-level systems using Erlang, C, and Go. He has a track record of shipping new features while proactively maintaining critical system components and working closely with PMs/POs to surface and refine ambiguous requirements. Based in Montreal, he moved from Ruby on Rails backend work into embedded systems, bringing a pragmatic, full-stack mindset to constrained hardware and firmware problems. Simon has moderate C++ experience and is actively seeking mentorship to deepen that skill set, reflecting a growth-oriented approach. Outside work he applies his interest in avionics to flight simulators and composes music—often exploring synthesizer development—which underscores a practical curiosity for both signal processing and hardware.
