Summary
Paul Kettle is a Distinguished Engineer specializing in Physical AI and robotics with over two decades of cross-domain expertise spanning UWB, GNSS/INS fusion, digital health, biosensors, and indoor navigation. He has led global, multidisciplinary teams to deliver production-grade solutions—from medical-grade wearables and wireless time synchronization to RTLS and gesture sensing—bridging deep algorithmic work with system and SoC architecture. As a founder and fractional CTO he has driven radio-agnostic IoT platforms and open-source UWB frameworks, helping accelerate industry adoption and standards such as IEEE 802.15.4z. Known for pragmatic innovation, he combines advanced signal-processing and Kalman-based sensor fusion techniques with product-focused roadmaps that enabled design wins like Google Pixel integrations. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area with a PhD in Electronics Engineering, he blends academic rigor with hands-on engineering across startups and major semiconductor companies. A less obvious strength is his ability to translate complex RF and biosensing algorithms into scalable software enablement strategies that unite hardware vendors, software teams, and customers.
