Hello! I'm Luca

The rest of this site is entirely about you, dear reader. This page is about me.

Hello! I’m Dipl.-Ing. Luca Ingianni, and I want to make your life better.

A Dream: smooth, efficient, fun product development

Imagine if you built projects quickly, frictionlessly, with great quality, and anticipating you customers’ needs. Engineers would be proud of their work, managers are relaxed knowing they can trust the team they are a part of, and everybody gets to go home while it’s still light out.

You can be that person, that team. We both know it. The only question is: how to get there?

Let me help you get there

Whoever you are: a developer, a scrum master, a manager, a CTO: I’m going to help you and your team.

But… I’m not a slick consultant type who has all the answers. I’m not going to tell you what to do: I can’t – all teams are different. We’ll understand your situation, together, and find a way forward.

What drives me is to see people learn, understand, succeed – in one word: grow. And I can’t grow you, you can only grow yourself. But I’ll provide all you need to grow.

I’ve been where you are now

I’m actually an aerospace engineer by training – an actual rocket scientist :-D ! But eventually the embedded systems world won me over – I’ve spent the major part of career working with embedded systems across aerospace, automotive, medical, and industrial sectors.

I’ve been a contractor for more than a decade. I started out like many of us, as a hired hand, augmenting staff on bigger embedded projects. Testing, specifying, coding, even managing – I’ve done it all in the embedded space.

The great thing about that is: I’ve seen the entire embedded development process in many projects. I’ve seen many teams. I’ve seen how the sausage gets made.

And I can’t leave it like it is.

It’s funny really: I was employing agile techniques in embedded systems already back in 2009, even though many believed agile couldn’t work for embedded development.

We’ll grow your embedded future, together

There’s ample discussion of modern agile methods all over the Web. But what do they mean for your embedded systems? What works, and how? How does it all translate to your situation with hardware constraints, safety requirements, and long lifecycles? I often talk to seasoned embedded engineers who feel confused, or even overwhelmed, by the plethora of agile tools and techniques being tossed around on the Internet.

I’ll help you make sense of the new landscape of techniques and tools for embedded development. How to gradually, iteratively improve your way of working. How to determine what works, and what doesn’t in your specific embedded context.

We’ll use an engineer’s approach: keep an open mind, be pragmatic, try to be driven by facts and data, not assumptions and magic.
