PROFILE

Benjamin Doron

Worked across Dasharo/edk2, Dasharo/coreboot, and tianocore/edk2-platforms to deliver stability and flexibility improvements in embedded firmware and driver development. Addressed critical bugs affecting PCI device enumeration and iGPU stability, and enhanced RISC-V platform reliability by fixing interrupt handling and handoff region reservation issues. Developed features such as configurable block sizes for the SMM Store Tool and improved diagnostics for Secure Boot workflows. Leveraged C and Assembly for low-level programming, focusing on system programming and UEFI development. Ensured robust build processes and maintainable code by refining library dependencies and debugging workflows, contributing to overall platform reliability and maintainability.
