L'Électron Rare

"I would rather be a cyborg than a goddess." — Donna Haraway

Embedded systems engineering meets artificial intelligence. We build hybrid organisms at the intersection of silicon, language models, and live performance technology.

What we do

We fine-tune LLMs for hardware engineers — domain-specific models trained on ESP32, STM32, KiCad, SPICE, PlatformIO, DSP, and EMC documentation. Our models help embedded developers write firmware, design circuits, and debug hardware faster.

Open-source projects

• Mascarade — Multi-machine agentic LLM orchestration. P2P mesh, 8 providers, 29 models.
• Kill_LIFE — Spec-first agentic methodology for embedded systems development.
• KiC-AI — AI-powered PCB design assistant for KiCad.
• prima-cpp — Distributed LLM inference with pipelined-ring parallelism (CUDA + ZMQ).

Models & datasets

8 fine-tuned models and 9 curated datasets covering the embedded systems stack — from register-level STM32 programming to KiCad footprint generation and SPICE netlist analysis.
