Ryan Thompson is a Digital Design Engineer with nine years of experience building hardware-software radio systems and IP for FPGA-based projects. At Nuand he expanded the bladeRF ecosystem from HDL to user interfaces, notably introducing an 8-bit sample format and an overclock feature that doubled AD9361 sample rates. He founded Torpor to automate IP core generation and mentor entry-level digital designers, blending product engineering discipline with startup pragmatism. Prior roles in oscillator and RTC product support gave him deep expertise in failure analysis, test development, and customer-facing optimization. Based in Austin, he combines practical hardware debugging skills with a knack for squeezing more performance out of constrained RF platforms.
