Connor Newton is a senior software engineer based in Cambridge with 11 years' experience building reliable, testable systems across embedded firmware, cloud-provisioned dev environments, and web back-ends. He has led teams and hands-on development of fully automated on-target testing for embedded Linux appliances, designing a Python/asyncio test framework deployed as code via Ansible and integrated into Jenkins CI to catch defects earlier. Connor’s background spans firmware protocol engineering (Wi‑Fi/Bluetooth/Cellular coexistence) through to devops-driven pre-silicon FPGA test environments and NHS-scale backend tooling, demonstrating a knack for bridging software, test and infrastructure. He favours pragmatic automation and developer-friendly tooling, and has a track record of modernising build and test practices to make complex environments easy to use.
