Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMalcolm Prinn is a seasoned embedded software developer with a decade of hands-on experience in C, firmware optimization, and low-power wireless systems. Based in Shannon, Ireland, he has a strong Intel background working across RF firmware, embedded platforms, and codebase optimizations that reduced execution time and footprint, and now develops software at NetApp. His academic work on wake-up radios and energy harvesting demonstrates a deep practical understanding of ultra-low-power wireless design and custom PCB development. Comfortable moving between firmware, hardware debugging, and scripting for tooling and data workflows, he blends pragmatic engineering with attention to system-level constraints. Colleagues rely on him for sustaining legacy microcontroller stacks (QMSI) and for tackling performance- and size-sensitive challenges that others avoid.
