I’m a senior embedded systems engineer with 30+ years of experience designing and building MCU/SoC-based devices and their supporting infrastructure. I started with edge devices and Unix servers and now focus on custom Linux distributions and full-stack embedded development, including board design, hardware bring-up, and driver development.I don’t just write code — I solve problems, design robust systems, and think deeply about edge cases, longevity, and maintainability. My work reflects the clear line between programming and engineering: solid tools, clear documentation, deterministic behavior, and measurable reliability.
My work has spanned handheld IoT systems, backend automation, and DevOps — long before those terms became buzzwords. I’ve contributed directly to open source projects like the GNU toolchain, OpenOCD, and OpenEmbedded, and have been committed to open source for over 25 years. I prefer building tools and platforms that can be shared — but also know when pragmatism matters more than purity.
I’m looking for a staff-to-founder level role architecting and building a new embedded platform, ideally involving robotics, drones, 3D printing, or other articulated/mechatronic systems. I’m especially interested in early-stage products with real-world interfaces and low-level complexity.
I’m not interested in JavaScript/Java/PHP/Ruby, Microsoft products or platforms, cloud-centric/"X-as-a-Service" infrastructure, fintech/crypto, "Web3", multinational corporations or government work.
