Working with Alex has always been a pleasure due to his competence, strong focus on code correctness and maintainability and his eagerness to learn new skills. His expertise in robotics and real-time field bus communication protocols has been invaluable for many successful projects.

We have been collaborating with Alexander of LXRobotics on the implementation of a quadcopter autopilot system based on a micro robot control system Pika Spark developed by LXRobotics. We have also been using another microcontroller board for smart peripherals control developed by LXRobotics.

Alexander has shown profound technical knowledge of the devices starting from very low-level electronics hardware all the way up to embedded Linux. He is very committed to the success of joint projects and his insight and technical support has proven to be invaluable and helped our team to reach development targets, while avoiding needless roadblocks, and upskilling our embedded systems developer.

Alexander and I myself, together with the third industrial partner from Zubax Robotics, have been co-supervising our mechatronics intern from Flinders University on the project of developing a drone autopilot. Alexander is very open and is willing to share his technical knowledge. He has helped the intern to develop very advanced robotics development skills in a very short span of time demonstrating Alexander’s great teaching ability.

His communication and collaborative skills are excellent, he is naturally comfortable working in globally distributed multidisciplinary international cooperation networks, and I am genuinely hoping to further expand our collaboration with Alexander in future.

Over the past years, I had the pleasure of working with Alex on several occasions. Primarily for outsourcing OpenBLT bootloader related customization and integration work.

Alex is one of those unique engineers with a well-rounded skillset and high self-motivation, especially when it comes to embedded firmware development. He quickly grasps the system and software architecture from a high-level and at the same time is capable of going deep down into the nitty-gritty code details. He doesn't need any hand-holding and works in a structured and organized way. On top of that he's excellent when it comes to both written and verbal communication.

I'm quite picky when it comes to finding a suitable candidate to outsource firmware development work. Alex is, and will always be, on the top of my list.
