Alex Cuan
Telecommunications engineering student at UC3M in Madrid, and a researcher at IMDEA Networks. I work on the parts of a system most people never see — networks, servers and the code that keeps them talking.
At IMDEA I work on keeping 5G base stations alive through radiation-induced memory faults on satellite hardware, down at the level of the Linux kernel. Before Madrid I studied and worked in Havana, building backends in Python and Node and helping run a distributed tracking system on Kubernetes. What is left over goes to whatever is currently broken in my homelab.
