Alex Stanoev

Specialising in wireless protocol R&D, with experience in embedded software, networking, wireless communications, electronics, and Linux.
Currently working on Nordic's Bluetooth Low Energy stack.
Previously at Toshiba Research Europe, where I worked on proprietary wireless mesh protocols. Played a key role in the deployment of a large-scale smart city network in South Gloucestershire, and was responsible for the embedded Linux build, FreeRTOS and Contiki-NG firmware, and backhaul fibre network.
Maintainer of the Contiki-NG embededd IoT operating system, and the Nordic nRF52840 port.
Graduated from the University of Bristol with a Masters degree in Computer Science and Electronics, where I wrote my thesis on IPv4 coexistence methods for end-to-end IPv6 connectivity in 6LoWPAN networks, and added RFC4213 tunnel support to the Contiki-NG NAT64 layer.
