About
Hi, I’m Sam Lefebvre, a seasoned embedded systems engineer and consultant based in Kortrijk, Belgium. I design and implement hardware, firmware and software solutions for Industrial IoT, embedded Linux platforms and hardware prototypes. I enjoy turning complex requirements into robust, maintainable architectures using C, C++, Java and Python, and I often work across the hardware-software boundary to deliver end-to-end results.
Today I run Saleconix as a freelance consultant, helping clients with embedded IIoT, machine vision and AI-enabled systems. My work spans microcontroller platforms (Microchip/ARM/STM32), Embedded Linux, PCB design, and rapid prototyping, with a focus on practical, production-ready solutions and collaborative product development.
