Harshal Bagde

I’m an IoT Engineer focused on embedded systems and production-grade firmware. I specialize in Embedded C/C++, RTOS-based development, bootloaders, firmware upgrade mechanisms, and data logging for real-world devices.

In my current role, I develop and optimize embedded firmware for ESP32 and ARM-based embedded devices. I own board bring-up, hardware validation, product validation, and troubleshooting—using debuggers and test equipment like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters to isolate firmware and hardware issues.

I integrate sensors and connectivity across UART, SPI, and I2C—working with GPS, GSM/LTE modules, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, displays, and external peripherals. I also build secure monitoring flows, including secure boot, TLS, remote diagnostics, and cloud connectivity, while collaborating closely with firmware, hardware, testing, and manufacturing teams.

Earlier, as a Robotics Innovation Engineer Intern, I developed firmware for embedded robotics, automation, and monitoring applications. I’ve continued to build practical systems through projects spanning MQTT-based control, secure TLS authentication, FreeRTOS dual-core tasking, OTA, and edgeAI-ready pipelines for computer vision anomaly detection.
