But don't worry, I can guide you through every step of the process from initial setup to final operation. Need help with selecting the right cryptocurrency for mining, equipment sourcing and selection, financial business models, profitability strategies, and more? I've got you covered. I can also assist with electrical power solutions, software selection, miner and rig configurations, and rig/miner troubleshooting. The key to a successful mining operation is professional business models and revenue forecasting. That's why I specialize in designing dynamic financial models that reduce your risk and maximize your profits. These models include Bitcoin mining basic assumptions, capital requirements for investment, income assumptions, profit and loss in terms of Bitcoin and USD, balance sheets, cash flow, return of investment, and more.

Hello! If you need an Electrical Hardware Design Engineer to take your idea and walking it through full cycle PCBA/System development from the proof of concept to fully functional prototype, that's me. I've been doing electronics work for the last couple of years, specifically rapid prototype development of tiny, wearable and battery operated devices, like earbuds, special purpose/medical watches, IoT and other devices required miniaturization efforts. I work with startups and understand stastups specifics - tight budget, fast turn-around times & a lot of uncertainty. I love what I'm doing: - Engineering Specification and Hardware Architecture Design; - BOM selection: low power consumption tiny MPUs and Audio DSPs (3.5mmx2.8mm with 0.35mm BGA pitch), small passives 01005 size, high efficient and battery operated switching regulators, tiny WiFi/BT chips and SoC; - Schematics Capture - experience with complex circuits and netlist, as small wearable; - PCB Layout for DFM - working with FAB houses in Asia and local to define high density layout rules, negotiating price and lead time the same time. I'm doing PCB Layout myself up to 8 layers and supervising CAD Team for more complex boards up to 32 layers - yes, I did it :-) Blind and laser via technics, power delivery planning, stackup definition, signal and power integrity rules, EMC/EMI. Tight component's placement and power noise decupling technics. Flex-rigid, flex and regular rigid boards from 0.11mm to 5.0mm thickness; - I have good sense of ME/PCBA integration in single device, worked closely with ME CAD Engineers and doing integration myself. My board's deliverables include 3D step file and all library. - Working on BOM procurement and kitting for proto build; - Working with FAB facilities to coordinate proto PCB fabrication - have direct local contacts and contacts in Asia - Working with PCBA facilities to assemble proto PCBAs - local and oversea; - PCBA's bring up, ME/PCBA integration, Firmware integration; - failure analisys and fixing issues; I'm working in the soul of Silicon Valley and have my own lab and tools to bring up prototype PCBAs, ME assembly/integration and firmware integration. Regular communication with my clients and vendors to sync and resolve technical issues as project management as well.
