Summary
Michael Bouchaud is a senior Linux and embedded software engineer with 16 years of experience building BSPs, kernel drivers, and bootloader-level multithreaded code across ARM and x86_64 platforms. He has led open-source development on the Enlightenment project since 2007 and brings deep hands-on expertise in Yocto, kernel backports, boot-time optimization, and hardware acceleration for vision pipelines. Michael has driven platform migrations, secure element integration, and custom modem and network driver work for automotive and IVI systems, most recently contributing to Lucid Motors after years in embedded systems firms. Known for low-level problem solving, he combines assembler- and barrier-based concurrency fixes with system-wide performance tuning and Debian/packaging know-how. Based in Occitania, France, he blends long-term open-source stewardship with practical, production-focused engineering on SoC vendors like Qualcomm, NXP, and NVIDIA.
