Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Perale is an Embedded Software Engineer based in Brussels with 11 years of experience building IoT products and secure embedded systems, primarily on STM32 microcontrollers. A VUB-trained software engineer and Free Software advocate, he blends low-level C expertise with Python and JavaScript, and has also explored functional languages like Haskell, Erlang, and Prolog. He has delivered bare-metal features and bootloader work for remote monitoring products, contributed to university research on embedded device security, and currently develops embedded solutions at Mind. Beyond work, he organizes and volunteers for FOSDEM, led his university's computer science association, and enjoys hands-on electronics projects and cycling—often learning new hardware platforms by building small personal devices. This mix of practical embedded engineering, security-focused research, and community-driven open-source involvement gives him a pragmatic yet curious approach to designing resilient IoT systems.
