Mihai Buduroi makes hardware talk to software without drama. An embedded systems architect who's deployed solutions from lab benches to production floors, he solves the integration nightmares that kill 95% of biotech automation projects. His expertise spans the stack—from sensor protocols to cloud pipelines—but his real skill is knowing when to use a microcontroller instead of machine learning. Previous wins include automated lab documentation systems and engineering key modules for global transport infrastructure.

Before Aradon, Mihai discovered why lab automation fails: not from bad tech, but bad integration. He's the engineer who makes hardware actually work in regulated environments—reliable data capture, bulletproof protocols, interfaces that technicians trust. His philosophy: start simple, validate constantly, scale gradually. When he's not debugging firmware at midnight, you'll find him contributing to open-source projects that make hardware production facilities accessible to everyone.
