Our Expertise
Senior CTO-level guidance without the full-time commitment — available on a retainer or project basis. Covers engineering team structuring, architecture decisions, build-vs-buy trade-offs, hiring technical talent, and bridging the communication gap between founders and engineering.
Independent assessment of a target company's technical assets, architecture, engineering team, and accumulated debt — for investors, acquirers, or founders preparing for a raise or exit. Business judgement applied alongside technical depth, so findings translate directly into deal terms and post-close priorities.
An independent audit of your company's technology strategy — surfacing hidden risks, misaligned priorities, and costly blind spots before they become production incidents or missed opportunities. Delivered as a clear, actionable report for leadership and engineering teams.
Low-level Vulkan driver development at the hardware abstraction layer, including render pass optimisation, memory management and synchronisation primitives. Application-side expertise covers high-performance render pipelines, compute shaders and cross-platform deployment.
End-to-end Linux systems expertise spanning kernel module development, device driver authoring, system call tracing and performance profiling with perf and eBPF. Experience hardening production systems and integrating custom hardware into the kernel subsystem.
Das U-Boot porting to custom silicon and board bring-up from scratch, including board support package (BSP) development, SPL configuration and boot sequence optimisation. Experience integrating Secure Boot, fit-image signing and TFTP/NFS network boot for production embedded targets.
Full-cycle OS engineering on Ubuntu and Debian: custom
.deb package creation,
private APT repository management, automated build pipelines with
sbuild and pbuilder, and maintaining downstream distribution forks.
Experience shipping OS images for embedded and cloud targets.
Qt application development from desktop tooling to Qt for Embedded Linux deployments. Expertise in Qt Quick / QML, custom C++ plugins, hardware-accelerated rendering via Qt RHI, and integrating Qt applications tightly with custom Linux BSPs on resource-constrained targets.
KDE Plasma shell customisation and KDE Frameworks component development, including Plasmoids, KWin scripting and theme engineering. Experience shipping custom KDE-based desktop environments in embedded and kiosk contexts, and contributing patches upstream to KDE projects.
Qt Quick–based HMI stacks for automotive cockpit and infotainment systems, built on custom Linux BSPs. Covers hardware-accelerated rendering via Vulkan, integration with vehicle data buses, and meeting the performance and reliability bar required for production head units.
Building and maintaining Yocto-based Linux distributions for embedded targets — custom layers, BSP integration, minimal rootfs construction, and reproducible build pipelines. Experience shipping production images for automotive, industrial, and consumer devices.
Qt and Qt Quick applications for industrial control panels, machine operators, and factory-floor displays. Expertise in real-time data visualisation, touch and multi-input handling, and deploying hardened Qt builds on resource-constrained industrial hardware running custom Linux.
Locked-down single-purpose deployments using Qt and KDE kiosk frameworks on embedded Linux. Covers full-screen application hardening, compositor configuration, remote content management integration, and unattended boot-to-app on custom hardware.
