Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLloyd Sargent is an experienced embedded systems and firmware engineer turned entrepreneur, with over four decades in the private sector and 13 years of recent professional experience leading product development. He founded and relaunched Canna Software as a creative product and game-design studio after a senior firmware role at BlueCats and long tenures designing embedded Linux/Windows CE BSPs and real-time systems at NCR and others. Lloyd’s work spans low-level motion and network controllers to Bluetooth firmware and GPS-based dispatch systems, demonstrating a pragmatic blend of hardware-adjacent software design and quality-focused delivery. Based in Texas, he is retired from traditional employment by choice and now gives back through steady, unflashy community contributions while pursuing projects that prioritize both user experience and personal enjoyment. An unusually candid designer, he champions building for the customer rather than the developer, a principle reflected across his decades of product work.
