I’m Avi Gupta, an electronics and PCB design expert with 11+ years of experience and 500+ boards designed for IoT, industrial, medical and consumer products. I help startups and product companies turn ideas into production-ready hardware using Altium Designer and other industry tools.
✅What you actually get when you work with me
• Boards that are designed to pass EMI/EMC, not just “hope for the best”
• Architecture and layout decisions that reduce respins and save months
• Clear, production-ready documentation your manufacturer will thank you for
✅I’m most useful to you if:
• You have a concept or early prototype (ESP32, STM32, or similar) and need it turned into a robust, production-ready Altium design.
• You already have a board that “sort of” works and you’re worried about noise, reliability, thermal issues, or compliance.
• You need an experienced hardware mind to own the electronics while your internal team focuses on firmware, apps, or business.
✅What I can help you with
1. New product hardware design (concept to production-ready PCB)
• Architecture and block diagrams for your electronics (MCU, power, interfaces, connectivity)
• Schematic design and capture in Altium Designer (or KiCad/Eagle on request)
• Multilayer PCB layout with controlled impedance, length matching, and proper grounding
• Design for manufacturability (DFM) so your CM can build and test boards smoothly
2. PCB review, cost-down and reliability upgrade
Already have a design? I can:
• Review your schematic and PCB layout for signal integrity, power integrity, and EMI/EMC risks
• Reduce BOM and PCB cost (alternative components, better stack-up, optimized routing)
• Improve thermal behavior and reliability for 24/7 operation in real environments
• Help you move from “prototype that works on the bench” to “design that works in production”
3. Compliance-conscious, production-focused design
• Design practices aligned with EMI/EMC, CE, UL and CISPR requirements
• Grounding, filtering, shielding and layout strategies to avoid surprises in the test lab
• Clean documentation: schematics, PCB files, Gerbers, fabrication/assembly outputs, PDFs, BOMs
✅Recent project highlights
• Designed an ESP32-based LoRa IoT sensor node with RS485/Modbus interface for industrial monitoring. Created a 4-layer Altium PCB optimized for low power, robust EMC behavior, and easy enclosure integration.
• Developed an STM32-based industrial controller board with isolated digital inputs/outputs, 24 V power domains, and RS485/CAN communication. The hardware was taken from concept to tested prototype and prepared for volume manufacturing.
• Reviewed and cost-optimized an existing ESP32 control board, replacing hard-to-source parts, simplifying the power stage, and reducing BOM cost by ~25% while improving thermal margins and layout quality.
• Designed a Raspberry Pi-compatible expansion HAT with LoRa communication, environmental sensing, relay output and RGB indication. Delivered complete Altium design, manufacturing files, and test guidance for small-batch production.
• Created a high-voltage/power PCB with isolated gate drivers, current sensing, and careful creepage/clearance management. Layout was done with EMI/EMC and safety in mind to support future certification.
✅Tools, technologies and platforms
• Primary CAD: Altium Designer (main tool for professional work)
• Also experienced with: KiCad, Eagle, EasyEDA, Proteus
• MCUs: ESP32, ESP8266, STM32, NXP, TI and similar 32-bit controllers
• Interfaces: RS485, Modbus, CAN, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, USB
• Wireless: Wi-Fi, BLE, LoRa (module-based designs)
• Applications: IoT devices, industrial controllers, sensor boards, data loggers, power electronics, battery-powered products
✅How I work
• Hardware-first mindset: I focus on solid electronics architecture and PCB design; I can support basic firmware bring-up and collaborate closely with your firmware/software team.
• Clear communication: upfront questions, regular updates, and intermediate design reviews so there are no surprises.
• Production thinking: I design as if your board will go to manufacturing – even if you’re only building 5–10 units today.
If you need a reliable hardware partner to design, review or optimize your PCB for a real product (not just a one-off hobby build), send me a message with a short description of your project, current status, and timeline. Let’s see how we can get your hardware ready for the field.
