Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPete Skeggs is an embedded systems engineering manager with 13 years of professional experience and a multi-decade hands-on background designing firmware, hardware, and sensor fusion systems. Based in Portland, he has led cross-disciplinary teams and shipping products from prototype to production—most notably low-power BLE motor controllers for model trains and sensor-fusion ASIC projects—while coordinating global manufacturing and compliance testing. He excels at bridging real-time firmware, embedded Linux (Yocto/i.MX), and hardware bring-up, having reengineered robotics platforms and developed RPMSG-based Linux/FreeRTOS interfaces. Equally comfortable as a technical lead and individual contributor, he founded Noetic/Nubotics to consult on robotics, motion control, and reverse engineering, and has repeatedly delivered critical bug fixes and architecture improvements that enabled OTA updates and product launches. An unusual strength is his end-to-end fluency across schematics, board layout, antenna tuning, and low-level firmware, which lets him optimize systems holistically rather than in isolation.
