Summary
Ed Tyler is a Senior Embedded Software Engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience designing firmware, drivers, and middleware across Embedded Linux, VxWorks, and Windows kernels for products from wireless home-theater systems to medical pumps. He has deep expertise in 802.11x stacks (C++/STL), device driver models (WDM/KMDF/NDIS), BIOS and USB firmware, and low-level debugging on multitasking, multiprocessor systems. As a former principal engineer at ON Semiconductor and Intel and a long-time contractor running his own firm, he blends individual contributor rigor with client-facing project leadership and business operations experience. Based in Portland, he now develops life-critical embedded firmware for insulin delivery at Insulet, bringing a strong safety-and-reliability mindset to constrained real-time systems. Notably, he pairs kernel-level troubleshooting with .NET tooling for instrumentation and has a track record of shepherding projects from RFQ and SOW through vendor relations to delivery.
