Top SchoolAlexander W is a Montreal-based software engineer with nine years of experience spanning game development, scientific simulation, telecoms, and embedded systems. Currently at OPAL-RT, he leverages uncommon domain crossover—implementing TWAMP in Ada and real-time C++ latency decomposition at Latence Technologies, while previously building and shipping the indie game MakerKing with a full in-game editor, multiplayer backend and Steam launch. His background includes FEM and rigid-body research at McGill (Matlab/C++), firmware and PLC development for sensor hardware, and full-stack backend and web work, giving him a rare end-to-end perspective from low-level firmware to cloud-backed applications. An avid lifelong learner who began coding for fun, he excels at turning research prototypes into production-ready systems.
