#whoami

Hello, world! After writing a decent amount of texts on UEFI development and reverse engineering in Russian it's finally time for me to start writing in English, both for improving my language skills and for reaching a broader audience.

I'm Nikolaj Schlej aka CodeRush, author of UEFITool, IFRExtractor RS, CrScreenshotDxe, and other UEFI-related things.

I have several years of UEFI development experience at congatec AG (where I worked as Software Engineer BIOS), followed by 8 and a half years of firmware security and low-level software development at Apple Inc (where I was a part of SEAR Firmware Security team, and was responsible for eficheck, T2 SecureBoot, M-series SecureBoot, BootPolicy, SEPOS virtualization and other smaller things).

If for some reason you are interested in my education and stuff, my ORCID has it all covered. My patents can be found here.

I'm currently funemployed for actively treating personal health issues, and do not plan to return to any job duties until those issues are fully resolved.
