IoT Gateway & Embedded Software Development
Reliable IoT Gateway and
Embedded Software Development
I help companies connect devices, sensors, protocols, and cloud systems with robust gateway software — written from scratch, built to run reliably in the field.
What I Build
Custom Software for Connected Hardware
From sensor integration to cloud pipelines — I write the software that makes hardware work reliably over a network.
IoT Gateway Software
Python-based gateway applications that bridge field devices to MQTT brokers, databases, and cloud APIs. Modbus, Zigbee, TCP/IP, and serial supported.
Linux Development
Device software for Raspberry Pi and Linux-based platforms. Serial, GPIO, USB, and network integrations written in C/C++ or Python.
Firmware-Adjacent Software
Application-layer code that runs close to the hardware — device drivers, HAL wrappers, FreeRTOS tasks, and microcontroller application logic.
Protocol Integration
Modbus RTU, MQTT, Zigbee/Zigbee2MQTT, and custom serial protocols integrated into a single, coherent data pipeline.
Cloud Connectivity
Reliable data pipelines from field devices to cloud platforms, REST APIs, or on-premise databases with structured telemetry.
Hardware/Software Debugging
Root-cause diagnosis at the application or hardware boundary using J-Link debuggers, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
Problems I Solve
IoT Gateway Help
Common reasons hardware companies bring me into a project.
Modbus to MQTT Gateways
Build gateway software that polls Modbus RTU devices over RS-485 and publishes clean telemetry to MQTT, REST APIs, or databases.
Raspberry Pi IoT Gateways
Develop Python or C/C++ services for Raspberry Pi edge devices that need reliable startup, logging, reconnection, and field behavior.
Zigbee Device Integration
Connect Zigbee sensors, Zigbee2MQTT deployments, and gateway applications into a coherent pipeline for dashboards or cloud platforms.

Common Engagements
The kinds of problems I'm built to solve — from greenfield gateway software to legacy device cloud integration.
Energy Monitoring Gateways
Polling Modbus energy meters and publishing structured telemetry to cloud dashboards or time-series databases.
Smart Building Automation
Bridging Zigbee sensors and HVAC devices through a local gateway, with remote visibility via MQTT.
Industrial Protocol Bridges
Converting Modbus and ZigBee device data into MQTT or REST data.
Edge Gateway Software
Custom Python or C applications running on edge hardware — collecting, filtering, and forwarding data from field devices.
Microcontroller Application Code
STM32 or NXP application logic, FreeRTOS task structure, and hardware peripheral integration written from scratch.
About
Over Two Decades of Embedded & Systems Software
Native Ocean Software Studio is a one-person boutique studio focused on embedded and IoT software. The studio was founded in 2012 to build applications for MCU targets such as the STM32. Today, the studio develops gateway and IoT software solutions for end clients all over the world.
I work remotely, write code from scratch, and integrate cleanly with existing engineering teams.
