About
As a skilled and qualified embedded software engineer with electrical engineering background, I have designed and developed a variety of systems.
Used different programming languages on a wide range of platforms including MS Windows, various UNIX flavours including BSD or Linux and different embedded and barebone systems such as Microchip MCUs, Cortex Arm devices or TI DSPs.
I bring extended experience in developing solutions for critical, fail-safe & secure, networked M2M and IoT applications that do not allow for any uncontrolled downtime.I am competent and experienced with a record of leading projects from specification through to production inclusive managing and leading required resources. As a motivator I am able to communicate a positive and exciting drive to my peers and colleagues.I am adept at synthesizing complex concepts and ideas and communicating them simply and accurately to internal and external stakeholders.
