Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJohan Stridkvist is a Principal R&D Engineer with 10+ years designing and shipping embedded wireless and real-time systems, currently driving key Bluetooth 5.0 feature development and platform migrations at Nordic Semiconductor. His background spans low-level firmware for ARM Cortex-M families, safety-focused certification work (IEC 61508), and cross-domain experience in networking protocols (Zigbee, Modbus, CAN) and FPGA/NIOS II development. He brings deep C expertise, tooling discipline (git/svn, CI, CMocka, LDRA) and practical Linux/RTOS knowledge from FreeRTOS to rt-patched kernels. Known for translating complex hardware constraints into reliable, testable firmware, he combines academic training in digital electronics with hands-on systems engineering across startups and defense sectors. An understated strength is his track record of migrating legacy soft devices to new silicon while maintaining rigorous test and documentation practices.
