Simon Vutov

Computer Engineering student at the University of Waterloo building reliable systems across firmware, backend infrastructure, real-time data, and simulation.

Currently:

  • Studying computer architecture, Systems Programming and Concurrency, Discrete Mathematics and Logic, Probability Theory, Embedded Microprocessor Systems, and Signals and Systems at the University of Waterloo's Computer Engineering Program 2B term.
  • Developing satellite firmware with UW Orbital.

Selected work:

  • Satellite binary logging: designed a lossless C/Python protocol that reduced representative logs from 271 to 69 bytes, with stream recovery, ARM cross-compilation, and 34 cross-language tests. Firmware PR · Ground-station PR
  • Deephaven UI infrastructure: added 2D resizing for nested panel intersections with nine automated drag tests. PR
  • Faster CI: sharded Deephaven's cross-browser Playwright suites, cutting runtime from 53 to 22 minutes. PR
  • Controlled table state: added programmatic sorting and quick-filter state across Python APIs and TypeScript/React. Sorting PR · Grid-state PR
  • Vehicle simulation: built custom suspension, tire traction, drivetrain, and engine simulation in SimpleCar2; the accompanying tutorial has 50k+ views.
