Summary
Chris Sen is a seasoned embedded software engineer with 9 years in the industry and over three decades of hands-on experience designing firmware and system software for wireless and IoT devices. He has led development of TI’s IEEE 802.15.4 stack and BLE link-layer code used in hundreds of millions of devices, and has delivered production features like Over-the-Air Download for Sub-1 GHz products. Comfortable across C/C++ on Linux and real-time microcontrollers, his expertise spans device drivers, communication protocols, user interfaces, and constrained OSes. Now based in San Diego and developing embedded and Android-related software, he blends low-level hardware knowledge with application-layer product thinking. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of long-lived, field-deployed code—systems he wrote decades ago are still running in refrigeration and other industrial units today.
