About Me

/images/slackline.jpg

I'm a freelance Software Developer and a Systems Engineer with 3 years of professional experience and 8+ years of programming experience. My main focus is in Embedded C and Linux. I'm available at adam.procio@gmail.com for business inquiries and on Mastodon for all else. Currently working for Photonic Technologies s.r.o..

Experience

Jan 2021 - Now: Embedded software engineer @ Photonic Technologies s.r.o.

  • Developing FreeRTOS and bare-metal firmware in C for in-house designed electronics based on the 8-bit AVR and ESP32 platform (also a bit of STM32)

  • Python programming for Linux

  • Maintenance and modification of a custom Linux distro based on Yocto

  • Porting bespoke software to ARM

  • Hacking up proof of concept software with Arduino (bare-metal) and Python (Linux)

  • Troubleshooting basic electronic interfaces (I2C, SPI, CAN)

  • Git evangelism

  • In cases of high time pressure flying out to the UK to ease integration hell on-site

Our electronics drive most of RBC Group-designed machines (now Bright Blue). I'm especially proud of my work on the second iteration of Refill Station, which helped our client to secure a UK government grant from the "Reduce. Reuse. Recycle." program.
