## Headline

Embedded Systems Engineer \| Firmware Development \(C/C\+\+\) \| ARM Cortex\-M3, PIC18F, 8051 \| IoT &amp; Real\-Time Systems \| UART/SPI/I2C/CAN \| Built IoT LPG Safety System on Raspberry Pi

## About

I'm an Electronics and Communication Engineering graduate specializing in embedded systems and firmware development, with hands\-on experience building real\-time, hardware\-integrated systems from the ground up\. I completed an 8\-month, industry\-oriented Advanced Embedded Systems Certification at Emertxe Information Technologies, covering bare\-metal MCU programming, RTOS fundamentals, and multi\-protocol communication \(UART, SPI, I2C, CAN\)\. During this program I designed and built four independent embedded/IoT projects: \- IoT\-based LPG tanker safety system \(Raspberry Pi 3B\+\) — real\-time gas leak and rollover detection using an MQ\-6 gas sensor and tilt sensor, with Bluetooth\-based location alerts and Pi Camera incident capture \- Automotive black box \(PIC18F4580\) — logged speed, collision status, and gear shifts to circular EEPROM storage over I2C, with event retrieval via UART \- CAN\-based temperature monitoring system \(LPC1768, ARM Cortex\-M3\) — ADC sensor acquisition, LCD display, and threshold\-based alerting over a CAN network \- LSB image steganography tool in C — bitwise encode/decode logic for hiding data inside BMP images I later worked as a Technical Support Engineer at Cisoft Technologies, diagnosing hardware and OS\-level failures across Windows and Linux environments — experience that sharpened the debugging discipline I now apply to firmware\-level root\-cause analysis\. Core stack: Embedded C/C\+\+, Python, PIC18F4580, LPC1768, Arduino, 8051, Raspberry Pi 3B\+, UART/SPI/I2C/CAN, MPLAB X, Keil uVision, Proteus, Git Looking for an entry\-level Embedded Systems Engineer, Firmware Engineer, or IoT Engineer role where I can bring this hands\-on, project\-driven foundation to building reliable, real\-time embedded products\. 📧 pkpranav11@gmail\.com \| Bengaluru, Karnataka
