About the author

Alexandru Pitis

I literally took the route to the machine code and back. And I'm really proud of it. Previously a senior backend engineer at GOG.com and BlaBlaCar , now a security researcher for WDG division @ Microsoft, I'm combining my previous experiences of writing high level, business-oriented projects with low-level stuff to bring best of the both worlds. I wrote highly-performant domain-specific APIs, I wrote debuggers, I hacked software, I hacked hardware---I'm a jack of all trades, and it really works for me.
