Summary
Peter Maloy is a seasoned technical lead and entrepreneur with over three decades of hands-on software and systems experience, currently growing Frogwood® and running Streamers LLC from Dunfermline. He combines low-level expertise—designing massively parallel finite-state schedulers and optimizing ARM firmware—with full-stack web work for companies like LastPass, bridging engineering, product, and UX. His career uniquely blends engineering, sales, training and creative craftsmanship: he designs hardware-grade firmware by day and produces bespoke colored laminated wood, laser-cut art, and fiction (the Splinter Town trilogy) in his spare time. Comfortable mentoring teams and architecting for testability and maintainability, he prefers pragmatic, kludge-free solutions that scale. Peter’s curiosity keeps him learning new tools and techniques while turning hobbies into profitable micro-businesses, exemplified by laser systems that paid for themselves multiple times over.
