Electronics ICT Engineering Technology Student
# Sodir Yuksel
I'm a 23-year-old Electronics & ICT Engineering student interested in:
- Low-Level Systems Programming
- Compilers & Security
- Electronics & Embedded Devices
- FOSS & Open Source
## Current Work
Currently writing my Master's thesis at KU Leuven - DistriNet@Gent on
bounds check optimizations using LLVM for the DistriNet boundschecker N00B.
My thesis focuses on dynamic alias probing techniques to improve
bounds checker performance by eliminating redundant safety checks.
## Experience
COSIC Intern @ KU Leuven — Developing an RTL fuzzing and
simulation harness targeting Verilator, Synopsys VCS, and Vivado
to accelerate hardware design verification.
Junior SOC Analyst @ Secutec — Aided the SOC team in
processing and analyzing large quantities of sensitive data
in an accurate and secure manner.
## Skills
Languages: C, C++ (learning), Python, Java, Verilog, Rust (learning)
Tools: LLVM, GDB, Linux, Git, Vivado, Vitis
Interests: Compilers, Memory Safety, Embedded Systems, Security
