What I'm looking for

I seek engineering roles in embedded systems, automation, or renewable energy where I can apply practical skills, grow technically, and contribute to innovative, collaborative teams.

I am an Electrical and Computer Engineering graduate with hands-on experience in automation, transformer maintenance, instrumentation, and renewable energy systems. I completed an internship at Sigma Engineering Company and led an Arduino-based Automatic Railway Control System thesis, demonstrating practical skills in embedded systems, PLCs, and industrial automation.

I bring strong problem-solving, teamwork, and leadership abilities, plus technical proficiency in Arduino, PLC, MATLAB, C++, Python, Proteus, and Microsoft Office. I am eager to contribute to forward-thinking engineering teams that value practical innovation and continuous improvement.
