What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in embedded systems that fosters innovation and collaboration.

With over six years of experience in embedded software development, I have honed my skills in integrating hardware and software elements to create cohesive systems. My journey has taken me through various roles, including leading the Embedded Software department at Ispace Inc., where I played a pivotal role in developing software for rovers and wireline logging solutions in the geoscience industry.

My expertise extends to software development for Linux systems, where I have successfully integrated various measurement tools and developed complex programs for data analysis. I am proficient in programming languages such as C/C++, Python, and Java, and have hands-on experience with CI/CD platforms like GitLab. My technical acumen is complemented by my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams to define requirements and achieve project goals effectively.
