Summary
Frédéric Rolland is an experienced embedded Linux engineer with over 20 years in software and eight years focused on deeply technical roles in embedded systems and IoT. Currently Expert Technique Linux Embarqué at Smile ECS, he has led architecture and project teams while shipping Yocto/Linux, U-Boot, Qt/QML and C++ solutions for industrial products and connected devices. His background spans telecom protocol stacks, CANbus/Modbus fieldbuses, cloud integrations (MQTT/AWS) and toolchains like Docker, GitLab and Jira, reflecting a rare blend of low-level kernel/boot expertise and higher-level application design. Former lead architect roles at Pellenc and Pellenc ST show he pairs hands-on coding with system-level design and delivery. Based in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, he describes himself with a dry humor ("Je ne suis pas un geek, enfin je crois :-)") that hints at pragmatic, team-friendly engineering.
