Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMaclain Lobdell is a Staff Technical Marketing Engineer focused on IoT Edge AI at Synaptics in Austin, blending hands-on embedded engineering with partner-facing technical account leadership. He’s built a career spanning microcontrollers to cloud-managed device fleets, helping grow Mbed OS and Pelion adoption during his time at Arm and enabling partners to integrate hardware with Pelion Device Management. At Stealth Power he led cross-functional teams and invented a bi-directional AC power-sharing system for solar-enabled energy storage (provisional patent). An active open-source contributor, he added dual-bank NCS36510 support and build automation to pyocd/FlashAlgo and helped make Mbed OS one of the most popular IoT OS projects on GitHub. With a BS in Electrical Engineering from Purdue and an MBA from St. Edward’s, he combines technical depth in power management, network protocols, and embedded security with product strategy and partner orchestration.
