Summary
Dima Pulkinen is an embedded software developer specializing in robotic welding and IoT, with 13 years in the field and seven years focused on embedded Linux. As founder and CEO of a consulting agency since 2018, he has delivered dozens of hardware, firmware, and software projects, often choosing cutting-edge tech like RISC-V and embedded Rust when it adds value. Deep in C and the ISO C library, he understands kernel internals, toolchains (having published a Clang+musl toolchain), and has contributed to mainline Linux. Equally comfortable writing Linux drivers or bare-metal firmware, he pairs software skills with hands-on electronics: a well-equipped lab, PCB rework, 3D printing and CNC capabilities enable rapid prototyping and precise hardware debugging. He has particular expertise in low-power image sensors and cellular modems, and a pragmatic preference for POSIX shell and Lua for automation that keeps projects lean and maintainable.
