Most embedded/PCB freelancers specialize in one lane. I've spent 35+ years moving across all of them — IC layout, custom PCB design, embedded firmware, and full-stack software — which means I can take a project from a rough idea through working hardware and the dashboard that controls it, without handing it between specialists. A sample of what that's looked like in practice: a custom industrial communication protocol supporting 1000+ addressable nodes, a cloud-synced clock rendered identically on hardware and web, a mesh-network vibration datalogger for landscaping equipment, sensory prosthetic devices (two U.S. patents came out of that work), and more one-off PCB/firmware jobs than I can list — metal detectors, load cell combiners, stepper drivers, servo hubs, and precision lab instrumentation with full touchscreen control. Core stack: Eagle CAD for schematics/PCB, PIC Assembly and Arduino for firmware, Python/Flask/JavaScript/MySQL for the software side, and the usual embedded comms protocols (I2C, SPI, CAN, RS-485, MQTT). If your project spans hardware and software and you don't want to manage three contractors to get there, let's talk.

With 3+ years of hands-on experience, I specialize in taking embedded products from prototype to mass production. I've completed 10+ real-world projects and successfully shipped consumer products that are now in end-users' hands. What I Do Best I build production-grade firmware — not hobby projects. My work spans the full embedded stack: hardware bring-up, device drivers, firmware, bootloaders, OTA systems, and companion mobile/PC apps. Core Expertise - MCU Platforms: STM32 (F0/F1/F4/L0/L4), ESP32/ESP32-S3/ESP32-P4/ESP32-C3, nRF52480/NRF52832, ARM Cortex-M & RISC-V, ... - RTOS & Bare-Metal: FreeRTOS (advanced task sync — queues, semaphores, event groups, task notifications), bare-metal programming, custom bootloader development, ... - Peripherals: I2C, SPI, I2S, UART, PWM, ADC/DAC, RMT, Modbus RTU, USB HID, ... - Connectivity: Wi-Fi, BLE, LoRa, NFC, GSM/GPRS, NB-IoT, 4G, ... - IoT & Cloud: MQTT, HTTP/HTTPS, WebSocket, TCP/UDP | Azure IoT, AWS, Firebase, ... - Security: Secure Boot, encrypted NVS storage, FIDO2 passwordless authentication - Languages: C/C++ (primary), Python, Dart/Flutter (mobile & desktop apps), Java - Sensors: Accelerometer, IMU, Gyroscope, Time-of-Flight (ToF), Fingerprint, Ambient Light, Temperature, Humidity, Water Quality, Gas, Heart Rate & SpO₂, ... - Peripherals: Camera, Microphone, Speaker, Buzzer, ... - Displays: TFT, OLED, LCD, HMI, ,.. - Build & Debug: ESP-IDF, Makefiles, CMake, linker scripts, GCC toolchain, GDB/JTAG — fully IDE-independent - Other: Embedded Linux (Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi), Edge AI on MCUs, VoIP, WireGuard VPN, OTA update systems, PCB design (EasyEDA) What Sets Me Apart I deliver production-ready firmware, not proof-of-concepts. Clean architecture, proper error handling, memory optimization, and power management. I work at the toolchain level — Makefiles, linker scripts, GCC, GDB — not dependent on any IDE. I collaborate effectively with backend teams, including building systems using MCP (Model Context Protocol). I've shipped real consumer electronics — I understand what it takes to go from "it works on my bench" to "it works in 10,000 units." If you're a startup building a hardware product and need someone who can take it from prototype to production, let's talk.
