Background

About Derek Byrne

Over the past decade, I've been fortunate to contribute my skills to the dynamic startup landscape of Dublin. My roles have spanned Full Stack Development, Firmware Development, and Project Management, providing me with a holistic view of the startup ecosystem. My work has revolved around algorithms, embedded systems, full stack development and wireless networks, which has deepened my expertise in the field. For the past year, I've had the privilege of serving as a Senior Software Architect at Edgeliot, where I've been at the forefront of designing end-to-end solutions for a scalable IoT project. My responsibilities include translating these designs into real-world solutions, bridging the gap from device to backend. With a strong foundation in Engineering, my passion lies in the realm of control and software engineering. My journey in the Maker culture began in 2012 when I first encountered Arduino, igniting a relentless curiosity that still drives me today. You'll often find me immersed in projects, tinkering away with my trusty 3D printer. In parallel with my professional journey, I'm currently pursuing a part-time Master's degree at UCD, working towards an MSC in Computer Science. I'm excited about the endless possibilities that this education will open up in my quest for innovation and continuous learning. Let's connect and explore opportunities to collaborate or discuss our shared interests in technology, engineering, and the exciting world of IoT.
