I work on embedded Linux stuff for Microchip’s RISC-V SoCs. As part of $dayjob, I maintain some stuff in mainline, typical platform support stuff - drivers, devicetrees etc. I also do kernel work in my “spare” time, looking after some of the otherwise unloved RISC-V platforms, reviewing patches for arch/riscv and helping wrangle the firehose that is devicetree bindings.

I studied Electronic/Computer Engineering in UCD, but at a few years removed, it feels like that is barely relevant.

I have a GitHub and a GitLab but I recently moved to sourcehut because I was just tired of GitHub’s performance being terrible and “features” that it wanted to shove down my neck. I have a Linux repo on kernel.org too, which is used for mainline work.

I also have a fediverse page but I’ve mostly given up because there’s just too much dooming going on.

If you want to contact me for some reason, mail at $domain will work. Failing that, I am present in a few IRC channels on libera/oftc as conchuod.

“Unprofessionally” I do a bit of hobby electronics stuff when I have the space/time, but more often I spend what time I have left playing video games of questionable quality or listening to music. Failing that, powerlifting or cycling :)
