KiCon Europe 2026

Tom Elliot

I'm an electronics design engineer by background. I've worked in Australia (where I grew up), San Francisco and Germany (where I live now).

I've always been frustrated with EDA tooling (🙈 Altium), and I'm excited for the direction KiCad is taking against the proprietary solutions.

Now I'm very curious what EE work will look like in 5 years time, as AI tooling (agents ✨🌈) become more and more a part of life.
