Francesco Montefoschi is an embedded software engineer with 15 years of experience building firmware, IoT solutions and web-backend systems across industry and research. He blends low-level embedded development with web and infrastructure skills gained from early backend PHP and frontend work through to IoT product development and current embedded roles. His background includes research on software benchmarks and machine learning at Università di Siena, giving him a stronger measurement-driven approach to performance and system design. Francesco has a lifelong commitment to Linux and open source—he built his first website at nine and installed Linux at thirteen—and brings that practical curiosity to production engineering. Now based in Italy, he moves fluidly between device firmware, cloud-connected IoT stacks and developer-facing tooling, often taking on operations and devops responsibilities alongside software delivery. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic solutions that balance resource-constrained embedded constraints with maintainable software architecture.
