Firmware Development Leader at Nouvenn
Minas Gerais, Brazil
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLeonardo Gonçalves is a firmware development leader with a decade of hands-on experience building IoT products and leading teams to deliver intelligent connectivity solutions for smart cities. He specializes in embedded C on ARM MCUs and has architected full Wi-SUN stacks and constraint wireless networks (Zigbee, LoRa, NB-IoT, Contiki) across commercial deployments like intelligent street lighting. Equally comfortable in technical design and client-facing roles, he blends product lean inception and Scrum-driven execution to align market needs with practical firmware implementations. His background spans diverse silicon vendors and protocols, giving him a rare ability to move projects from prototypes to field-hardened systems while supporting customers and proposals. Based in Minas Gerais, Brazil, he pairs a Master’s in Electrical Engineering with continuous learning and a focus on energizing teams to achieve high performance. Notably, he brings experience developing low-layer network stacks—an uncommon depth for firmware leaders who often remain at the application layer.
