About

Most engineers pick a side — hardware or software. I kept ending up in the middle: writing C that has to work with memory constraints, file systems, and low-level data — not just run cleanly on paper. That pulled me into embedded systems. I'm an EEE graduate (2025) currently completing the ECEP program at Emertxe Institute, where I've built 5 projects spanning file handling, bit-level data manipulation, audio systems, algorithmic problem-solving, and Linux socket programming — an Address Book, a Steganography tool, an MP3 player, a Data Structures-based project, and a client-server networking application. Each one forced a different kind of low-level problem-solving. Before that, I interned at Caliber Embedded Technologies, where I built a microcontroller-based monitoring system — programming firmware to interface sensors and handle real-time data under actual hardware constraints. My core stack is C, C++, and Linux, backed by Data Structures & Algorithms I keep sharp through regular practice. I'm looking for my first full-time role as an Embedded Systems Engineer or Embedded C Developer, where I can keep working close to the hardware. If you're hiring for a role like that, message me — my projects are linked below.
