What I do
I build embedded systems that boot, log, measure and survive reality. If your project currently lives in a slide deck, I’m the person who drags it onto real hardware. Kernel, drivers, userspace, tooling — the unglamorous parts where products either become solid or die quietly.
My comfort zone is the messy middle: early prototypes, unclear requirements, flaky boards, tight timelines. I turn that chaos into something you can ship — reproducible builds, debuggable systems, and hardware you can trust.
My focus
- Embedded Linux (Debian, Yocto, Buildroot) — build systems, rootfs, updates
- Kernel configuration, debugging, driver work (bring-up, perf, trace, “why is this IRQ screaming?”)
- Custom ARM/x86 bring-up: bootloader → kernel → userspace
- Rapid HW/SW prototyping: from schematic/PCB to bench-tested device
- Reverse engineering & system analysis (because specs are often fiction)
Why me
I don’t stop at “it should work”. I stop when it boots reliably, when the logs make sense, when the system is diagnosable and repeatable, and when the next engineer won’t hate you for what we shipped.
If you need someone who can go low-level fast — without losing the product view — let’s talk.
