About Perceval

I design, secure, and industrialize embedded Linux systems (Yocto, IoT, edge devices).

An engineer from Télécom Paris with experience in cybersecurity (ANSSI, Wavestone) and embedded development, I work on concrete issues related to the production of critical systems.

I support technical teams on:
•Securing embedded systems (Linux hardening, secure boot, access management)
•Industrialization (Yocto build systems, CI/CD, automation of flashing and deployment)
•Product architecture and security review (IoT, connected devices)
•Analysis and improvement of existing configurations

I have notably worked on:
•Porting and maintenance of embedded OS on Nvidia Jetson platforms
•Automation of deployments (reduction from 1 day to 10 minutes)
•Implementation of security best practices on production systems

I prefer technical missions with a concrete impact: improving existing systems, securing them, scaling them.

Available a few days a week, mainly remotely.
