Summary
Petteri Tikander is an embedded software engineer with over 15 years of professional experience and more than 20 years programming embedded devices across aviation, GNSS, protection relays, mobile OSes and smart metering. He specializes in C-based firmware, low-level drivers (SPI/UART/I2C), microcontroller power management and communications stacks (HDLC/COSEM, MBUS, DLT, ARINC429), and has practical hands-on skills with oscilloscopes, schematics and JTAG debug flows. At Sweetlakes he contributed avionics IFF and MFD/HUD features with OpenGL graphics and cross-bus messaging, and previously implemented NB-IoT, BLE, NFC and 3G RNC features in diverse product contexts. Petteri bridges HW and SW teams effectively, pairing protocol and PC-side tool design with production test automation and power-measurement optimizations. He also dabbles in higher-level apps (an Android BLE tester on GitHub) and legacy assembler/Neuron-C work, showing a mix of modern connectivity and deep embedded pragmatism.
