Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteve Tickle is an embedded architect with 11+ years of hands-on experience designing and implementing multithreaded, multicore and hard real-time systems across embedded, gateway and server domains. He has led the architecture and delivery of large smart-metering and IoT platforms (UltiMesh/OmniMesh) that span Cortex-M nodes, ARM gateways and Java/Python servers, and rearchitected IPv6/6LoWPAN/RPL stacks for product families. Known for marrying high-level design with low-level efficiency, he drives portability, deterministic bare-metal solutions and cost-optimised node architectures while maintaining certification-grade quality (MISRA, CPA/SMETS2). Steve regularly bridges hardware and software teams, performs deep codebase evolution on million-line C projects, and instituted CI, fuzz-testing and automated bring-up processes. He’s based in Cambridge and combines protocol-level expertise (CoAP, DTLS, ZigBee, MODBUS, HART) with practical product delivery experience across international teams. One less obvious strength: he repeatedly balances rapid feature development with architectural control to make legacy or third-party codebases safe to evolve for mass deployment.
