Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndré Hillbom is an embedded systems engineer with nine years of cross-industry experience spanning automotive, telecom, 3D printing and IoT, currently focused on embedded software at Axis Communications. He has led safety-critical software for EV charging (GM Ultium) and shaped architectural concepts for Vehicle Connectivity Modules at Volvo Trucks, combining C++/embedded Linux expertise with system- and hardware-level design. His rare background includes compiler backend work for a microcontroller vendor and hands-on PCB and high-speed circuit design, giving him a full-stack embedded perspective from silicon to cloud-facing telematics. André also runs commercial hardware projects—successfully crowdfunded the Ant2 charger—and is developing an open-source modular power bank, demonstrating product-minded engineering. Based in Malmö, he blends rigorous standards-driven development (UL/SAE) with practical automation and verification skills (Python, FreeRTOS, LLVM), making him effective in both prototyping and certified production environments.
