Summary
Parker Dillmann is an electrical engineer and entrepreneur with 13 years of experience designing embedded systems, PCB layouts, and production-ready electronics. He co-founded MacroFab and led electrical design and manufacturability efforts, pairing hands-on board-level work with operations, QC, and supply-chain process design. Parker’s roots in retro console mods—over a thousand Atari 2600 S-Video mods produced—underscore a lifelong knack for practical hardware hacking that predates his formal ECE degree from UT Austin. He’s fluent in microcontrollers, FPGA/VHDL/Verilog, DSP, and full product development cycles, and has won hands-on rapid-prototyping competitions such as a TI-sponsored Launchpad contest. As the owner of longhornengineer.com he publishes tutorials and app notes to help small teams navigate board layout and compliance challenges. Practical, product-focused, and community-minded, Parker bridges hobbyist ingenuity with scalable manufacturing know-how.
