Richard Curnow is a CPU architect with 22 years’ experience and over 13 years focused on embedded computing, SoC and subsystem architecture. He has led CPU and PHY designs across industries—from server-class ARMv8 devices to five generations of 802.11ad/ay PHY—and bridges hardware and software through Linux kernel work, RTL verification, modeling and electrical-level debug. A pragmatic engineer, Richard has defined architecture extensions, developed novel verification tools and adapted early big.LITTLE switching on RTL models, demonstrating deep cross-domain problem solving. Based in Bristol, he is also a prolific open-source maintainer (github.com/rc0) whose spare-time projects have been adopted into major Linux distributions, reflecting a long-term commitment to reusable, production-ready tooling.
