Syeda Yashab Zehra Naqvi
@syedqalbemohsinnaqvi
Software engineer specializing in embedded systems and IoT development.
What I'm looking for
I am a software engineer focused on embedded systems, IoT and robotics, delivering end-to-end hardware‑software solutions.
Since 2021 I have worked as a freelance software developer, building Arduino and IoT projects on platforms such as Raspberry Pi Zero using C, C++ and Java; I created a vending machine simulation and designed an autonomous drone navigation system integrating real‑time sensor processing and pathfinding.
I gained industrial experience through internships where I supported equipment calibration, product testing and quality assurance, and I served in student leadership roles including President and Founding Member of the Society of Food Engineers and Manager for Formula Electric NED, overseeing logistics, team coordination and technical documentation.
I am currently pursuing graduate studies in computer science and information technology, and I present projects that bridge software and hardware; I seek opportunities that let me apply embedded, IoT and robotics skills in collaborative, impact‑driven teams.
