Taha Syed

Third-year Electrical Engineering student at the University of Toronto, interested in compilers, RTL, firmware, and hardware & software co-design.

About me

I’m interested in how software is translated, executed, and how hardware interacts with software.

My recent work includes a C compiler and an FPGA data-acquisition pipeline. I’m looking to explore more of compiler development, digital design, and embedded systems.
