Summary
Niels Hokke is an embedded engineer based in Delft with a decade of experience designing low-power, energy-harvesting IoT systems and building innovative prototypes that push the boundaries of wireless sensing. He co-founded ZED to commercialize batteryless IoT solutions and has combined research at TU Delft with hands-on product work across startups and industry, now contributing at MEMSYS and Vendlify. His expertise spans circuit and PCB design, ARM/AVR microcontroller firmware, ultra-low-power MAC protocols, and practical power-management for energy-harvesting devices. Niels is comfortable taking concepts from master’s research through prototyping to deployable systems, blending academic insight with entrepreneurial execution. He’s quietly focused on making sustainable, maintenance-free IoT viable at scale—often optimizing RF and power trade-offs that aren’t obvious to higher-level architects.
