Embedded Development

$5/hr Starting at $25

I have been a wizzkid since the 70's. Studied both hardware and software (dedicated and alongside my work) for nearly 10 years. Been freelancing since 1997. A lot of computer architectures, operating systems, programming languages and applications have crossed my path. Built quite a few in the process. My focus has always been in the area where hardware and software meet. On how they interact and communicate. The stuff required to make "it tick". I have seen and touched the soul of the machine. Now I capture ideas and transform them so they exist in a digital form. Keywords: Embedded, Linux, Prototyping, High-performance, Multi-platform, Distributed / Client-Server, Porting, Firmware, Emulators, Compression, Encryption, Troubleshooting, Optimizations. I have built operating systems and C compilers.Stuff: Assembler, Apache, Bash, C, C++, Cobol*, CSS, DTD, Fortran*, GIF, HTML, Java, Javascript, Joomla, JPEG, Linux, Lisp*, MyIsam, MySQL, Occam*, Pascal, PDF, PHP, RPM, TCP/IP, X11, XML, XS

    Haven Web says,

    Franz was a delight to work with even before the project started. He had supplied a working prototype that demonstrated his ideas for the project during the bidding phase. Once we got the project underway, he provided well-commented code and quickly responded to any feedback about the releases. I'd definately recommend him for any C/C++ coding projects (and perhaps some C# ones). He's professional, patient, and knows his stuff - all good qualities when looking for a programmer!
