MSc in Embedded Systems & Management Studies (Kingston University, UK)

Embedded Software Engineer with 9+ years of experience developing production-quality firmware and technical documentation, backed by a strong foundation in electronics. I specialize in writing reliable, testable embedded software using Agile and TDD practices, with experience in both static analysis (MISRA, linting) and dynamic analysis (unit testing, CI workflows). Having worked across consumer electronics, semiconductors, consulting, and IoT sensing, I bring a deep understanding of cross-functional team dynamics, diverse product requirements and engineering processes.
