Maxime Vincent is a VP of Engineering and low-power embedded systems expert with 11+ years of experience designing drivers, kernels and firmware for resource-constrained devices. He led firmware architecture for ultra-low-power trackers (BLE, Sigfox, GPS) at Sensolus and now combines executive leadership at Finalmouse with ongoing freelance work in low-level software. An active open-source contributor and kernel hacker, he has improved stability in PicoTCP, added NXP LPC55xx support and USB/clocking work to the Zephyr RTOS, and adapted wolfSSL for embedded security use cases. Known for hunting down subtle memory leaks and clocking/USB bugs, he brings pragmatic, hardware-aware engineering backed by a Master’s in Electronics from Groep T.
