Senior🎓
Top SchoolUrs Fässler is a Software Architect and founder of iQiliO based in Zurich, bringing over 20 years of experience in Embedded Linux, C++ and system design and 13 years of documented industry experience. He specialises in making embedded projects production-ready by reducing time-to-market, lowering maintenance costs through testable architectures, and aligning systems with regulatory requirements like the Cyber Resilience Act. Urs couples hands-on architecture and BSP work with modern CI/CD, TDD/BDD practices and Yocto-based system builds, and has a track record of leading and ramping teams to adopt pragmatic agile processes. As a Technical Agile Coach and mentor he emphasises sustainable, error-resistant development and a culture of craftsmanship. His background spans low-level boot and driver development to cloud-connected IoT solutions and test-tooling across multiple languages and domains, which helps him bridge hardware constraints with maintainable software.
