Romain Cochet is a hands-on CTO and co-founder with 12 years of experience building connected hardware and embedded systems, currently leading product and technical strategy at Smiirl in Lisbon. Trained in embedded engineering, he progressed from prototyping IoT devices and neural-network FPGA integration to designing Gigabit Ethernet CMOS cameras and leading R&D teams as a ScrumMaster. He combines low-level VHDL and kernel driver expertise with C/C++ and image-processing experience (OpenCV), enabling him to shepherd both hardware design and firmware to production. Known for tackling problems others deemed impossible, he blends entrepreneurial grit with deep systems knowledge to reconnect digital identities with physical products. An early contributor to consumer IoT (Nabaztag) and a steady maker of measurable hardware-software integrations, he thrives at the intersection of product, engineering and operations.
