Dipl.Ing. (FH) Electrical EngineeringÜber mich
Embedded software architect, 25+ yrs. I design the software architecture of connected devices: network stacks (TCP/IP, TLS, MQTT, CAN-FD), secure cloud connectivity, ARM Cortex-M. Remote-first, occasional on-site for hardware bring-up. Available for remote projects now.

EMBEDDED SOFTWARE ARCHITECT
25+ years turning hardware platforms into maintainable, secure, testable software systems. I take architecture responsibility: layering, module boundaries, concurrency model, memory strategy, interface contracts between firmware and cloud - and I implement what I design. Production systems for automotive, industrial, medical and laboratory equipment.
ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
- System and software architecture for connected devices
- Layered and event-driven architecture, design patterns, interface contracts
- Concurrency and multi-core design, memory and caching strategy, MPU-based protection
- Verifiability without hardware: device behaviour simulated on Windows as a virtual device clone running the actual firmware
- Code reviews, technical documentation, team mentoring
NETWORK & PROTOCOL STACK (remote-capable, screen-bound work)
- Complete TCP/IP stack implementation, TLS 1.2/1.3 with mbedTLS and hardware acceleration
- Certificate management and certificate pinning, secure communication design
- EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) requirements for connected devices
- HTTP(S), REST, MQTT, JSON
- Automotive and marine protocols: CAN-FD, J1939, NMEA2000, ISO 15765-2, ISO 14230, UDS, ODX
- Ethernet PHY/MAC integration: NXP SJA1110, TI DP83867/8381X; RGMII, SGMII, MII, 100BASE-T1, 1000BASE-TX
- Performance optimization and debugging of network stacks
PLATFORMS
ARM Cortex-M (M0/M3/M33/M4/M7): NXP i.MX RT1062, LPC17xx, SJA1110; STM32H5/H7; Infineon XMC7200D. Deep understanding of ARM CMSIS, memory architecture and performance tuning.
RTOS & OS
FreeRTOS (extensive production experience), CMSIS-RTOS, Keil RTX, NuttX, bare-metal, Embedded Linux and kernel modules.
LANGUAGES
C (MISRA-compliant), C++14/17/20 with STL, Rust, C#/.NET. Object-oriented design, multi-threaded applications, memory-safe programming, static analysis.
DRIVERS & INTERFACES
Bootloaders, flash (NOR/PSRAM), EEPROM, DMA, SPI/SSP, I2C, UART, RS-232/RS-485, USB (WCID), SAI/I2S, ADC, GPIO, timers, watchdogs, inter-core communication.
DEBUGGING & VALIDATION
SEGGER J-Link, ST-Link, SWD, JTAG, ETM trace; logic analyzer, oscilloscope, CAN/Ethernet sniffers; Vector CANoe, Busmaster, KCANMonitor; Ethernet qualification and compliance testing; unit and integration testing strategies.
AI INTEGRATION ON CONSTRAINED DEVICES
Local inference and translation pipelines, e.g. Ollama with Translategemma or Strata with Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, device-to-model interfaces.
Remote-first. Occasional on-site for hardware bring-up or lab validation.

Development of Device Platform (Büchi Labortechnik)
Developed the next-generation device platform on NXP i.MX RT1062: FreeRTOS, C++ with STL, REST API handling with nlohmann, LWIP web server. Built the MQTT communication layer that became the IoT layer for all Büchi products. Made the platform verifiable without hardware by simulating device functionality on Windows as a virtual device clone running the actual firmware.
Technologies
Architecture, multithreading, algorithms, MQTT, REST, JSON, LWIP, TCP/IP, Ethernet, FreeRTOS, Doxygen, Git, C/C++/C#.
