Embedded Systems & IoT developer focused on secure real-time firmware and edge AI.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Embedded Systems & IoT developer who builds real-time firmware and complete IoT solutions end-to-end, from microcontroller to cloud. In my final-year capstone internship, I designed and developed Sentinel, a connected smart-home security system, independently from hardware architecture through production deployment.
My work centers on secure, reliable embedded communication and maintainable device software. I implemented real-time firmware in C (ESP-IDF/FreeRTOS) for ESP32-S3 and ESP32-C3 nodes, including a secure OTA update mechanism with automatic rollback, and I architected IoT messaging using MQTT/TLS and WebSocket/TLS with mutual certificate authentication.
On the edge and app side, I built an edge hub on Raspberry Pi (Docker/Python microservices, mDNS discovery) and integrated on-device facial recognition fully locally. I also delivered the product experience with a Flutter mobile app (livestream, bidirectional audio, push notifications) and a Next.js fleet-monitoring admin dashboard, supported by GitHub Actions CI/CD and a compliance assessment against ETSI EN 303 645.
