Summary
Tim Broyles is a seasoned software engineering manager with 10+ years focused on IoT platforms, mobile apps, and real-time, event-driven backends that operate at scale in the physical world. He combines deep embedded systems experience (C/C++, FreeRTOS, MQTT) with cloud-native services (Go, Node.js, Kubernetes, AWS) to design architectures that decouple device, backend, and frontend concerns for reliability and evolvability. At Stratosphere IoT he’s led production integration of computer vision and AI pipelines, treating AI as an architectural lever rather than a bolt-on feature. Tim gravitates toward complex, long-lived systems—making legacy stacks faster, more understandable, and safer for distributed device fleets and external contractors. He pairs an engineering mindset with product-aware pragmatism: simple where possible, explicit where necessary, and always validated by how systems behave in production. Based in Overland Park, KS, he also brings project leadership and systems thinking from roles spanning avionics to lab automation, which informs his emphasis on guardrails that let AI increase velocity without increasing chaos.
