Justin’s background includes leading hardware engineering at Le Tote and consulting through Very, where he applied Nerves in commercial settings to solve tricky real-world integration problems. He combines a tinkerer’s curiosity (he once rewired a motorcycle to start from his phone) with production-grade experience modernizing embedded development and deployment.
