Embedded Software Engineering
& Security Consulting

I build secure, robust embedded systems from silicon to software. Trusted expertise in secure boot, platform security, and embedded Linux.

About

I'm Lars Feyaerts, an embedded software engineer with a Master of Engineering in Computer Science and over 10 years of professional experience in security-critical embedded systems. My work currently runs on 500,000+ production devices.

I help companies build secure, reliable embedded systems that work across multiple platforms and vendors. From board bringup and BSP integration to secure boot architecture and kernel driver development, I cover the full stack from silicon to userspace.

My philosophy: one codebase, all platforms. I design generic, portable solutions that reduce maintenance burden and accelerate time to market without compromising on security.

Security First

Every design decision starts with security. From threat modeling to implementation, I ensure your systems are protected across the entire boot chain.

Cross-Platform

Generic solutions across Broadcom, Mediatek, and NXP platforms. Write once, deploy everywhere.

Full Stack Embedded

From ROM bootloader through ATF, U-Boot, kernel, and userspace — I understand and work on every layer of the boot chain.

Multilingual

Native Dutch, fluent English, and good working proficiency in French. Comfortable in cross-functional European teams.

Services

I specialize in security-critical embedded systems. My services span from architecture and design through to implementation and audit.

Secure Boot Systems

Design and implementation of secure boot chains across multiple silicon vendors. I build trust from the first instruction your processor executes.

  • Chain of trust architecture
  • Hardware root of trust integration
  • Firmware signature verification
  • Multi-vendor secure boot solutions

Security Architecture & Design

Comprehensive security architecture for embedded products. I define the threat model, design the countermeasures, and guide implementation.

  • Threat modeling & risk assessment
  • Security architecture design
  • Code review & security audit
  • Secure update mechanisms

Security Consulting

Expert guidance for teams building security-critical embedded products. From strategy to hands-on mentoring.

  • Security strategy & roadmap
  • Team training & mentoring
  • Compliance guidance
  • Vendor security evaluation

Embedded Linux & Platform Development

Full-stack embedded Linux development for home gateways and CPE devices. One codebase, multiple platforms.

  • Home gateway software development
  • Cross-platform BSP integration
  • System-level Linux development

Network Driver Development

Kernel-level networking and driver development, including hybrid bonding technologies combining DSL and LTE into unified WAN links.

  • Linux kernel driver development
  • Hybrid bonding (DSL + LTE)
  • WAN link aggregation
