Work Experience
Senior Software Engineer
Addestino• November 2012 - Present
IT Consultant, working on various assignments including graphical pipeline development, test automation and embedded software development.
Software Engineer
Barco• January 2018 - March 2019
Software development for a video-streaming solution used in Operating Rooms (routing camera images to multiple screens for surgeons/nurses). Introduced a new system to keep track of component versions, builds and testing to guarantee the correct software was delivered to partners (based on Jenkins). Also improved automated testing (particularly automated software install on remote machines).
Software Engineer
Nokia Networks• March 2016 - January 2018
Embedded software development for new DSLAM (DSL access multiplexer) models. Joined an investigation on using an embedded GPU (programmed with OpenCL) to speed up calculation on the DSLAM. Spearheaded an effort to make the legacy code-base (which runs on a number of platforms, including VxWorks and Linux) platform-independent (was previously suited for 32-bit platforms only).
Software Engineer
Virdata• April 2015 - March 2016
Development of client-side libraries (C, Java, Contiki) to talk to Virdata's IoT platform, as well as updating simulation software to simulate a large number of IoT devices pushing data to the platform. This job also included creating a raspberry-Pi based demonstrator for a trade fair to demonstrate remote software upgrade capability.
Software Engineer
Nokia Networks• May 2013 - April 2015
Joined the DSLAM (DSL access multiplexer) development team to help out with low-level software development (Linux driver development, device management, hotpluggable hardware support, etc.). Also overhauled software upgrade mechanisms on a number of DSLAM models to create a more uniform approach.
Software Engineer
Barco• November 2012 - May 2013
Joined Barco's research division to help develop proof-of-concept software to control a video wall, meant to connect one meeting room to another, incorporating video streams, shared desktop content, static images, etc.
Software Engineer
Ghent University• April 2010 - November 2012
Conducting research into speeding up CPU and GPU simulation to enable faster development of new CPUs and GPUs.
Software Engineer
Barco• September 2008 - April 2010
Embedded software development for a "reference monitor," a monitor that must exactly display its input signal (measured in the wavelength of the light emitted by the screen), used to validate video and image content before broadcast (in television studios) or publishing (in post-production use-cases). I was responsible for implementing the licensing model and did general problem solving with the embedded software (c++ on buildroot-based embedded Linux). I also helped pioneer the introduction of Qt in the department.
Software Engineer
Ghent University• October 2006 - September 2008
Conducting research into enabling video and 3d content on thin client protocols (VNC, RDP, etc.). Resulting in a number of papers published at international conferences.
