Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDavide Asnaghi is a founder and embedded software engineer with eight years of experience building low-power silicon and safety-critical firmware for medical and edge AI products. He led embedded architecture and wrote a bare-metal OS for a RISC-V SoC, designed sub-milliwatt custom silicon for recurrent neural networks, and implemented firmware and bootloader systems for ultrasound-on-a-chip devices. A UC Berkeley-trained bioengineering engineer now based in New York, he blends hardware-near development with product-first startup experience (Y Combinator S24). Davide’s background spans rapid prototyping in academia to shipping rugged, reproducible firmware pipelines in industry, and he brings a practical knack for squeezing performance and power out of constrained systems.
