Thomas Stilwell is a multidisciplinary systems architect and principal investigator with 17 years of hands-on engineering experience and a 20-year intellectual trajectory spanning physics, electronics, quantitative finance, and AI. He leads Project Genesis Engine, developing semiautonomous "Projectlings" and an ASiCH interface that lets AI act as a Linux-native "Second Brain," and has production experience shipping high-frequency market-making on Solana. Equally comfortable at PCB-level embedded work—contributing hardware fixes to the widely used RIOT-OS IoT project—and at systems-level design, he reframes problems by re-architecting the protocols that produce them. His work blends thermodynamic first principles with rigorous double-entry accounting for blockchain assets, exemplified by a solana-to-gnucash pipeline and a course linking physics to economic phase transitions. Based in Dallas, he is available for conversations on AGI alignment, algorithmic finance, and rigorous systems engineering.

Contributions summary:Thomas primarily contributed to the RIOT-OS project by implementing and fixing low-level hardware-related code. Their work included configuring system clocks for the CC26x0 platform, addressing GPIO and UART issues, and adding support for the kw41z-mini board. Additionally, the user made corrections to the drivers for the at86rf2xx radio and modified code related to the kinetis platform. These changes demonstrate a focus on hardware-specific configurations and peripheral management within an embedded systems context.
