Summary
Sami Heino is an R&D scientist and embedded software engineer with over 20 years of hands-on experience and a decade-plus of focused RFID, BLE and Android work. He designs and implements low-level firmware and cross-platform APIs (C/C++, Java, .NET) for resource-constrained MCUs such as Cortex-M3/M4 and NRF52, as well as Linux single-board computers like Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone. His recent work spans UHF/HF RFID protocol internals—including Gen2 v2 authentication—and BLE-linked accessories, showing comfort from bit-level radio encoding to end-user Android integration. Sami blends embedded tooling (Keil, Eclipse CDT) with higher-level systems (RabbitMQ, NodeJS, Angular) and has led small teams delivering secure, hardware-integrated products. Based in Turku, Finland, he brings a practical mix of deep radio-domain expertise and cross-layer software design that accelerates prototypes into robust deployed devices.
