Jourdan Proffit
@jourdanproffit
Motivated Computer Engineering graduate focused on embedded systems, VHDL, and hardware/software integration.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Computer Engineering graduate skilled in VHDL design, embedded hardware, microcontroller programming, and system-level integration, with hands-on experience building FPGA projects and voltage-regulated circuits. I have developed real-time sensor data collection on ARM microcontrollers, implemented an 8-bit calculator and stopwatch on FPGA with overflow and error handling, and used tools such as Aldec, Quartus, and ModelSim.
Funded and mentored by Jefferson Lab, I bring strong problem-solving, troubleshooting, and technical communication skills, plus practical lab experience using oscilloscopes and multimeters. I am eager to grow into a professional systems engineering role where I can contribute to hardware/software integration, system efficiency, and fault tolerance.
