Founder And CEO CTO at Signaloid
Cambridge, England, United Kingdom
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPhillip Stanley-marbell is a founder, professor and CTO with 18 years of experience building systems that blend physical-world insight with efficient computation. Based in Cambridge, he bootstrapped Signaloid from a skeptical idea into a funded, product-driven company delivering cloud platforms for quantitative finance and custom edge hardware for robotics. His research and engineering career spans MIT, IBM Research Zürich and Apple, where he led production OS components and pioneered tools linking device physics to algorithm performance. An active embedded systems and IoT developer, he maintains firmware and full-system emulator projects—work that reveals a rare combination of low-level hardware integration and large-scale system thinking. He brings both academic rigor (Professor of Physical Computation at Cambridge) and demonstrable startup grit, often turning emulator-based research prototypes into commercial platforms.
