Summary
Pawel Defée is a veteran embedded systems engineer and "rocket scientist" with 20 years of hands-on experience designing ultra-low-power wearable, IoT and mesh-network products across medical, defense, telecom and consumer domains. He specializes in high-performance C/C++ and assembly firmware on Linux/FreeRTOS and bare-metal platforms while automating integration and testing with Python, JavaScript and CI/cloud orchestration (AWS/GCE) for large compilations and simulations. His work spans sensor fusion, secure systems for safety-critical devices, RF mesh (LoRa/SigFox/802.15.4e) and pragmatic hardware-software co-design—he regularly reads schematics and supervises subcontractor production. Known for minimizing BOM and power budgets, he also brings FPGA, DSP and VPN/mesh networking expertise to demanding connectivity problems. A collaborative mentor fluent in multicultural teams, he pairs deep low-level craftsmanship with an early interest in blockchain and zero-defect approaches to system reliability.
