Summary
Benoît Marcot is a low-level software engineer and CTO with 14 years of experience building kernels, CPUs and safety-critical embedded systems across semiconductor, defence and space industries. He co-founded Percisio and has driven CPU/SoC validation and functional verification at companies like ARM and Nordic, pairing signal-level RTL debugging with practical device driver and microkernel development. Adept in C, assembly and system architectures (ARM, RISC-V, PowerPC), he also led blockchain backend and Web3 work, showing rare full-stack fluency from bare-metal to cloud. A habitual kernel hacker and top 1% algorithm competitor, he combines deep hardware/software abstraction expertise with strong teaching and documentation skills, and a track record of inventing virtualization, multicore and safety features for real-time systems.
