Embedded systems engineer • low-level software • Linux / seL4 / 5G / FPGA • Co-founder @ Sticky Piston Studios
- 🌍 Based in Poland and Sydney Australia 🦘 (& more often than not on the road)
- 💼 Embedded systems engineer working across low-level software, hardware/software integration, performance work, and bring-up
- 📡 Background in 5G/LTE, Linux, seL4, FPGA- and ASIC-adjacent systems, protocol-layer software, and cross-layer debugging
- 🕹️ Co-running Sticky Piston Studios – recent titles: The Deluge (HackYeah 2022 winner), Tiny Trucks (Slavic Game Jam 2025)
- 📝 I write about embedded programming, hardware hacking, optimization, and the occasional travel or side-project story
- Slavic Game Jam 2025 - Developing PillEngine - adding networking and physics support to create a game about Tiny Trucks
- Hackaday Supercon 2025 - Lightning talk on hacking around IceBreaker FPGAs
- Embedded OSS Summit 2024 NA – ZLED frame using Zephyr talk
- FOSDEM 2024 – Open RAN & Intel FlexRAN talk
- Hackaday Supercon 2023 – ML blood-pressure inference on EOS S3 on Zephyr
- Embedded OSS Summit 2023 – Same as above 😁
- State of Open Con 2023 – FPGA-accelerated
