Iman AhmadvandSoftware Development Engineer
PROFILE

As a detail-oriented, collaborative, and well-disciplined Software Engineer with +7 years of professional experience and valuable insights, I've contributed to various high-tech business sectors in both Agile membership and initiative, with a primary focus on cross-platform application development and distributed systems (simulations, network services, and processing pipelines). With a strong foundation in computer science, including algorithms, data structures, and concurrency, I bring strong problem-solving skills and a proven ability to analyze, design, implement, and optimize solutions—primarily using C, modern C++, and Python— for long-term projects aimed at performance, reliability, and latency following a test-driven workflow.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Software Engineer

ESPACE Startup
Jan 2023 – presentStuttgart, Germany (Remote)

As the primary full-stack developer and part of a small team, I've contributed valuable work to the software development and micro/macro architecture/design of a testbed and HIL/SIL platform. The product is a versatile utility similar to dSPACE ControlDesk or Vector CANoe, usable for graphical programming and model-based system design, validation, and experimentation.

Area of my work:

  • •Developed a universal engineering utility to unite multiple specialized tools like debugging and visual schematic modeling, leveraging modern C++ with a flexible plugin-based modular structure with a high level of scalability, maintainability, and extensibility
  • •Integrated Python3 and Python-binding of all C++ APIs and a full GNU Octave interpreter to enhance and extend application runtime functionality with their great tools and mathematical strength

    Aug 2019 – Oct 2022 | Tehran (On-Site)

    I was the main back-end and core systems developer, responsible for developing and maintaining pipeline services for data aggregation/distribution servers(providing their SDKs) for GIS-oriented data from many diverse data sources for algorithm processing, filtering, smoothing, etc. using modern C++ and Python which involved:

  • •Developed a plugin-based gRPC server for a custom database playback system with complex business logic under the hood handling 5000/sec live GPS entities
    • 1 / 2
  • •Developed a high-performance logging agent as part of a distributed federate-based(HLA) simulation session capable of handling 8000 simulation events per second
  • •Designed high-performance data models and query optimization using PostGIS on the database side to increase system responsiveness over millions of records
  • •Participated in developing and maintaining parts of the 3D monitoring system as the OpenGL front end using OpenSceneGraph & osgEarth
  • •Optimized CPU and Memory performance through profiling, and tunning across projects in collaboration with the rest of the team
    • ACHIEVEMENTS

    High throughput logging federate

    C++, backend, Postgresql, database
    Arad Co

    Developed a high-performance logging system to capture and store records from all federate nodes in a PostgreSQL cluster during non-real-time distributed simulations. Achieved ~8,000 events/sec (100 KB each) with no impact on simulation performance, ensuring reliable and persistent data logging

    Aviation Data Pipeline Management Server

    Arad Co

    Developed a back-end server capable of handling around 5000 GEO position data flows per second for tracking purposes and further algorithm processing & replay system using modern C++
