About Marleysoft
Building sustainable firmware systems through architecture, testing, and developer experience.
Experience
With over 15 years developing embedded firmware for IoT and connected products, I've seen what works and what doesn't. I've built systems that ship to millions of devices and learned valuable lessons from the ones that didn't scale.
My experience spans multiple industries:
Medical Devices
Regulatory compliance, safety-critical systems, and rigorous testing requirements.
Industrial Systems
Reliability, long product lifecycles, and field serviceability at scale.
Consumer Electronics
Fast iteration, cost constraints, and mass production challenges.
Philosophy
Shipping firmware isn't enough. Sustainable development means building systems that your team can maintain, test, and iterate on for years.
Architecture Over Quick Fixes
Taking time to design properly prevents technical debt that slows you down later. Good architecture is an investment that pays dividends.
Testing Enables Confidence
Good testing infrastructure means you can refactor, optimize, and add features without breaking existing functionality. Tests aren't overhead — they're enablers.
Developer Experience Matters
Friction in your development process compounds over time. Optimizing build times, improving tooling, and streamlining workflows makes your entire team more effective.
Process Over Heroics
Relying on individual heroics isn't sustainable. Good processes, automation, and CI/CD make quality repeatable and predictable.
Working Together
I'm not the consultant who takes requirements, disappears for weeks, and comes back with a solution. I integrate directly into your team.
Attend standups and team meetings — I stay synchronized with your team's goals and blockers.
Work within your existing workflows — I adapt to your tools, processes, and communication channels rather than imposing my own.
Collaborate daily — Constant communication means problems get caught early and knowledge transfers naturally through working together.
Knowledge transfer through doing — Your team learns by working alongside me, not just from documentation handoffs.
Let's Work Together
Whether you need help with architecture, testing infrastructure, or CI/CD, I'd be happy to discuss how I can support your team.
