Year in Review: 2024
2024 has been a transformative year of technical excellence and innovation. Our team successfully delivered production-ready solutions across the technology spectrum, from bare-metal embedded systems to modern mobile applications.
This year, our work focused on two major engagements, involving deep expertise in FreeRTOS, Swift/SwiftUI, and real-time collaboration systems. We modernized legacy architectures into maintainable, scalable platforms while ensuring reliability through comprehensive testing and secure update mechanisms.
Key Achievements
- RTOS Firmware Migration: Successfully transitioned legacy bare-metal firmware to a modern FreeRTOS-based architecture, enabling preemptive multitasking and improved power management.
- Secure OTA Updates: Developed a dual-bank firmware architecture with Ed25519 cryptographic signature verification, enabling secure field updates with automatic rollback on failure.
- Real-Time Collaboration: Built a full-featured iOS application with WebSocket-based real-time collaboration, offline-first architecture, and seamless data synchronization.
- Automated Testing: Established comprehensive hardware-in-the-loop testing frameworks with CI/CD integration, ensuring regression-free releases.
- Manufacturing Readiness: Created dedicated manufacturing test modes, device provisioning workflows, and quality assurance systems.
Technologies & Expertise
- Embedded & IoT: FreeRTOS, C, STM32 microcontrollers, I2C/SPI sensor integration, and hardware abstraction layers.
- Mobile & Desktop: Swift, SwiftUI, Combine, Core Data, and WebSocket communication.
- Backend Development: Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, Redis pub/sub, and JWT authentication.
- Tooling & DevOps: Python test automation, pytest, CI/CD pipelines, and crash reporting integration.
