Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKyle Machulis is a pragmatic technology leader and founder with 20 years of experience building embedded systems, robotics, and immersive hardware-software products from prototype to store deployment. Currently leading In-Store Technologies at Augmodo and founder of Nonpolynomial, he blends strategic leadership with hands-on firmware, infrastructure, and operations work across teams. His background includes platform engineering at Mozilla (contributing to Firefox OS tooling and UI tests), deep device-level contributions to projects like libfreenect and Emotiv drivers, and production firmware at Grabango. Kyle is fluent across languages and domains—real-time C/C++, Rust, DevOps scripting, and graphics/haptics for immersive environments—so he often moves between low-level debugging and product-facing architecture. Based in California, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with a history of open-source impact, including cross-platform BLE and eye-tracking algorithm work that isn’t obvious from his job titles alone.
