Miguel R is a CTO and lead web developer with over a decade of experience building end-to-end agtech systems that bridge embedded firmware, wireless sensor networks, and scalable cloud services. As co-founder and technical architect of Wisecrop, he designed modular field hardware and led development of a Django-based platform that delivers real-time monitoring, irrigation control, and predictive models for farmers and cooperatives. He combines low-level firmware optimization (energy-efficient sensor cycles, mesh networking) with backend engineering, integrations with 20+ third-party APIs, and AWS-based deployments to ensure high availability in the field. A mentor and systems thinker, he sets technical standards for maintainability while owning DevOps, performance tuning, and cross-team hardware/software coordination. Based in Porto with an MSc in Electrical and Computers Engineering, he’s comfortable turning messy real-world constraints—battery life, radio reliability, and dispersed users—into production-grade digital products.
