Doru Blanzeanu

Contributed to open-source systems software focused on lightweight virtualization.

Worked on Hyperlight, a lightweight VMM designed to be embedded within applications and run untrusted code with very low latency.

Focused on security and isolation guarantees when running untrusted code in virtual machines across multiple hypervisor backends, including KVM, MSHV, and WHP.

Implemented debugging, t

Contributed to the implementation of Bluetooth specifications, requiring in-depth knowledge of the Bluetooth protocol, underlying radio communication, and system architecture.

Focused on specification-driven development, Embedded C implementation, and system-level design in resource-constrained embedded environments.

Developed cloud infrastructure software with a focus on hypervisor and operating system components.

Contributed to security-critical parts of the EC2 Nitro platform, including Nitro Enclaves and NitroTPM, with emphasis on strong isolation, hardware-backed trust, and secure boot.

Used Rust and C/C++ for low-level system development related to virtualization, kernel architecture, and security.

Contributed to the development of security firmware for proprietary IP (Hardware Security Engine) in the automotive domain, with a strong focus on secure coding practices and system security.

Developed bare-metal C firmware on ARM microcontrollers using a proprietary RTOS, implementing security features such as secure boot, key management, cryptographic services, and protocol offloading.

Partici

Developed an internal cross-platform tool for game testing written in C++ using the Qt framework.

Implemented and maintained GUI functionality, with attention to portability across Unix, Windows, and macOS platforms.

Worked on a performance testing team developing a Unix-based application to stress production servers and collect system logs.

Handled large volumes of log data to support performance analysis and root cause investigation.

Gained hands-on experience with Python in production environments, Unix systems, Bash scripting, and performance monitoring tools such as JMeter, Dynatrace, and Splunk.

I had the best time in college, I continued my studies of Mathematics and Physics started in high school and also I was introduced in other subjects that I was interested in, such as: electronics and computer science.

I had the privilege to be taught by some of the best professors in the country in their field and this is where I started to get a more thorough idea about what means to be a Softwa

High School was the institution that se the basis of my career today.
I had amazing teachers that taught me the necessary things to pass the admission to the faculty.
The High School profile I chose was focused on Mathematics, Physics and English so it really prepared me for
a career in Computer Science.
