What I'm looking for

I seek product-focused embedded systems roles where I can drive firmware and system architecture, lead technical teams, and deliver reliable, testable products in fast-paced, multidisciplinary environments.

I am a senior embedded software engineer with over six years of industry experience and one year of research experience across automotive, SATCOM, avionics, IoT, HVAC, and smart-city products.

I design and implement firmware and system architecture for bare-metal and Embedded Linux platforms, build hardware-in-the-loop simulations, and lead board bring-up and low-level debugging down to assembly.

I've owned network control codebases, developed SATCOM and ECU digital-twin simulations, and delivered mission-critical avionics drivers while contributing to product roadmaps, onboarding, and technical interviews.

I thrive in fast-paced, multidisciplinary teams, emphasize end-user-driven product focus, and have a track record of shipping commercial products and generating measurable business results.
