Gabriel C.
Electronics Engineer | Firmware developer | FreeRTOs - C/C++ - IoT
I'm Gabriel, an electronics engineer and co-founder of Mateware, an electronics product development studio based in Argentina. I specialize in embedded systems and firmware, and I take products end-to-end — from the first idea to a manufacturing-ready device. As part of Mateware, I work alongside a multidisciplinary team of electronics engineers, embedded developers, and PCB and industrial designers. Together we cover the full product lifecycle, so clients build with a single technical partner instead of coordinating multiple vendors. We have our own hardware lab, which lets us prototype and validate quickly and reduce development risk. What we do at Mateware: Embedded firmware in C/C++ (bare-metal and RTOS — FreeRTOS, ESP-IDF, Zephyr) and embedded Linux PCB design, from simple boards to complex high-speed multilayer Power electronics and battery-powered devices IoT connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth/BLE, LoRa/LoRaWAN, cellular, Ethernet and custom RF protocols Custom sensors and precision instrumentation Industrial and mechanical design: enclosures, DFM, 3D printing and injection molding Complex reverse engineering and improvement of existing equipment Industrial IoT: real-time monitoring, dashboards, cloud and remote control (through MoTI, our own product) A few things we've built: A US-patented sports-tech wearable (smart LED training vests) engineered end-to-end, now entering production Train-detection and platform-door control electronics running every day on a city's light-rail public transit MoTI, our industrial monitoring and telemetry system — winner of a national Industry 4.0 startup award 90+ medical-grade IoT telemetry units deployed nationwide Background: I'm an Electronics Engineer (UTN) with 5+ years in embedded systems, and founder of The Mars Society Argentina. I value clear, honest communication with no time-zone or language barriers. If you have an idea that needs to become real hardware — or a product that needs an experienced engineering team behind it — let's talk.
