Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Kwan is a seasoned software engineer with over three decades of hands-on experience across embedded systems, real-time video and broadcast technologies, and precision agriculture controls. Currently at Topcon Technology, he develops embedded C++ and Linux control software for CAN/ISOBUS-equipped machinery, drawing on deep firmware expertise from roles at Eaton and earlier RF and teletext projects. His portfolio includes designing the BBC’s Programme Delivery Code system, teletext schedulers used internationally, FPGA-based A/V processors, and secure alarm communications with AES—work that blends low-level hardware interfacing with robust system design. Based in Gloucester, he brings a pragmatic, long-term perspective to engineering and a wry sense of permanence about recruiter outreach. A University of Surrey graduate in Physical Science and Computer Science, he still describes himself humorously as a "retired teletext engineer" despite active work in modern embedded controls.
