Summary
Anuj Deshpande is an embedded systems engineer and independent consultant with 13 years of experience designing hardware-software products and OS-level integrations. He has shipped projects across Yocto, Zephyr, ESP-IDF and Docker, and previously worked on hardware and OS teams at balena and firmware at Espressif Systems. His background spans product-focused startups and developer-facing roles—maintaining Marvell’s IoT SDK, crowdfunding an Arduino-enabled BLE board, and building interactive installations—so he blends maker creativity with production-grade engineering. Based in Pune, he thrives at the intersection of board bring-up, embedded Linux, and IoT cloud integrations (Alexa/AWS). Notably, he moves comfortably between low-level firmware and OS build systems, making him effective for projects that require both hardware design insight and software delivery.
