Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolThomas Thorne is a Product Owner and former embedded software engineer with 11 years of experience building hardware-software products across embedded Linux/RTOS, GNSS simulators, NAS and fiber-optic sensing systems. At Sensonic he leads the Platform Edge portfolio—combining hands-on Go development, CI/CD and device fleet management with product strategy and operational support. His background in electronics and RF engineering (MEng, University of Surrey) and prior firmware work in C/C++ gives him a rare full-stack hardware-plus-software perspective on complex telecom and sensing systems. He is a Certified ScrumMaster who stays technical by contributing code alongside product duties, and has practical DevOps experience running monitoring and automated test infrastructures. Outside work he maintains a pragmatic, hands-on mindset—evident from motorcycle repairs and DIY—which informs a pragmatic approach to building maintainable, field-deployable systems.
