Fanda Vacek is a SW Architect with 12 years of experience leading embedded and back-end software development from Luže, Czechia. He blends deep embedded/IoT expertise—contributing fixes and board support to the NuttX RTOS used by PX4—with secure backend work such as adding RSA-OAEP encrypted authentication and session handling to an open-source OPC-UA implementation. A long-time believer in open source as the healthiest way to develop software, he pairs hands-on debugging and configuration fixes with higher-level architecture and system design at Elektroline. Trained as an engineer in automated control systems at Czech Technical University, he brings pragmatism, low-level hardware awareness, and a bias for shipping reliable, maintainable systems.
