Engineering Fellow at PION Labs
São Paulo, Brazil
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJoão Silva is an Engineering Fellow with 11 years of hands-on experience building embedded systems, IoT platforms, and space-grade hardware from São Paulo. He co-founded PION Labs and helped design Brazil’s first private educational satellite kits and an orbital PocketQube, combining PCB, FreeRTOS firmware, and production automation for over 300 units. At TRACTIAN he progressed from Hardware Engineer to IoT Tech Lead and now Fellow, shipping firmware, microservices, OTA support, and sensor-data tooling that bridge device constraints with cloud systems. Comfortable across C/C++, Python, Vue.js and STM32/ESP32 ecosystems, he also drives production optimizations and bespoke QA tooling. Unusually for an engineering leader, he pairs deep low-level reliability work (TMR, FEC on flash) with product-facing dashboards and mobile apps, making him effective across the full device-to-cloud stack.
