Summary
Ayberk Özgür is an experienced embedded systems engineer and founder with a PhD in Computer Science from EPFL and over a decade building cutting-edge robotic and UAV systems in both research and industry. He has led hardware and firmware design for novel drone components, developed cross-platform drone SDKs, and architected resilient embedded platforms featuring redundant power, isolated subsystems, and brick-free bootloaders. As Technical Lead at WiTTRA and founder of Astrosfer, he blends hands-on C/C++ and Linux stack development with system-level product thinking and operationalizing agile practices for embedded teams. His academic work on Cellulo tangible swarm robots—complete Bluetooth-enabled, omnidirectional, battery-powered systems with patented drive and sub-mm optical localization—informs a practical flair for multidisciplinary engineering and productization. Based in Stockholm with roots in Turkey, he frequently bridges research prototypes to commercial-grade embedded products.
