What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining embedded hardware and software design, clear requirement-driven projects, collaborative teams, hands-on diagnostics, and opportunities to grow in IoT/firmware development.

I am an Electronics and Computer Science student with hands-on experience in embedded systems, software requirements engineering, and technical support from internships with a government ICT unit. I have led field teams for community assessments and delivered projects including an inventory management system and a LiDAR-based remote room mapping capstone.

I excel at requirements elicitation, translating operational needs into SRS documents, and implementing both hardware and software solutions—ranging from PCB and circuit design to MATLAB mapping scripts and TinyML integration. I prioritize clear stakeholder communication, practical diagnostics and repair, and building maintainable systems that reduce cost and improve operational efficiency.
