Summary
Simon Duquennoy is a Principal R&D Engineer based in Sweden with 8 years of industry experience and a deep academic pedigree in reliable and secure distributed embedded systems. He designs and ships large-scale IoT products, having led firmware, embedded Linux and cloud stacks for industrial deployments—from a 400-node airport mesh to a validated 1,100+ device routing testbed—and improved battery life across fleets from months to years. A former researcher and PhD, he brings rigorous security and scalability practices to product development, including secure OTA upgrade strategies and ISO/GDPR-aligned architectures. He is a hands-on team leader who blends protocol and firmware architecture with product ownership, and quietly influences the IoT ecosystem through long-term contributions to Contiki and standards work at IETF.
