▶️I am a hardware engineer specializing in power electronics and battery-powered IoT systems. I help clients turn hardware concepts into working systems, including DC-DC design, battery charging circuits, and PCB bring-up and debugging. ▶️My core expertise includes power electronics and embedded hardware design for low-power and battery-operated systems. I work extensively with DC-DC converters (buck, boost, and buck-boost), battery charging circuits, and power management design for IoT and portable devices. I also handle PCB review, hardware bring-up, and debugging of power-related issues such as instability, noise, and efficiency optimization. ▶️I focus on hands-on engineering work in battery-powered IoT devices, power electronics, and embedded hardware systems. My typical projects involve system-level design, PCB bring-up, debugging, and optimization of existing hardware. I can also support early-stage projects by helping refine hardware requirements when there is a clear intent to develop a working product. ▶️Based in Shenzhen, the global hardware hub, I can provide direct oversight for sourcing and PCBA manufacturing
