I’m an Embedded Linux & Firmware Engineer with nearly 3 years of experience building production-grade firmware for multicore platforms. I focus on reliable device operation under 24/7 load, from board bring-up and hardware-software integration to device driver development.

As an Embedded Engineer - II (Team Lead) at Probots Electronics, I wrote main control firmware for a fleet of ASIC-based hardware and managed memory and thermal limits on CVITEK/AMLOGIC multicore platforms to prevent failures. I debugged kernel-level and IPC issues using GDB, strace, and Valgrind, fixing security bugs and memory leaks to raise fleet uptime to 99.9%. I also set up cross-compilation with crosstool-ng for ARM targets, configured U-Boot and custom Linux images, automated firmware workflows with GitLab CI, and cut release time by 40%.

Earlier, I built an ASIC firmware stack from scratch in 7 days using SPI, I2C, and UART drivers with ESP-IDF, FreeRTOS, and RTOS-focused bring-up discipline. I developed test fixture firmware to isolate faulty chips faster (cutting manual debug time by 60%), and I built Python/PyQt tooling to visualize live sensor data over USB and reduce testing time by 50%.
