Carlos Burgos
@carlosburgos1
Embedded Systems and Industrial IoT engineer focused on firmware, PCB design, and industrial automation solutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Embedded Systems and Industrial IoT Engineer who builds real-world hardware and firmware—bridging sensor integration, mixed-signal electronics, and industrial control. I’ve developed embedded prototypes and performed embedded validation and debugging in international R&D environments, especially for agricultural and forestry applications.
In my recent freelance work, I designed and deployed an IoT-based irrigation automation system using distributed sensors and actuator control, and I created electrical schematics and wiring diagrams aligned with RETIE and IPC standards. Earlier, as an Electronics Engineering Intern at STIHL, I developed C/C++ firmware for IMU and MEMS sensor systems, designed multilayer PCB layouts in Altium Designer, and ran structured embedded validation workflows. I also supported control engineering learning by developing PID/fuzzy/discrete controllers and simulating industrial thermal systems in MATLAB/Simulink for controller tuning and lab validation.
