Principal Engineer at Blues
Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Wiedey is a Principal Engineer based in Cambridge, MA with over 20 years of hands-on embedded systems and firmware experience and a decade-plus focus on startup productization. He excels at bridging hardware and software — spec’ing and validating complex boards, debugging manufacturing defects on-site, and building Go and C++ tools that normalize design data and drive production. A pragmatic technical leader, he has repeatedly simplified over-engineered systems (from multi-MCU 3D printer firmware to tangled manufacturing stacks), mentored junior engineers, and shipped field-ready products across international contract manufacturers. Comfortable with lab bench tools as well as PLM and certification processes, he combines low-level protocol/debug expertise with higher-level automation and configuration software. Not obvious from titles alone: he’s a proven pre-funding hire who turns ambiguous hardware specs into manufacturable, testable products.
