About Me

I'm an Embedded Software Engineer with 6 years of hands-on experience building production-grade embedded software.

My main areas of expertise are C and C++, Embedded Linux, low-level drivers, Qualcomm SoCs, ARM architectures, automotive systems and telematics.

I've worked across the full software development lifecycle — from requirements analysis and architecture to implementation, testing, debugging and production delivery.

I'm particularly interested in understanding systems at a low level, solving difficult technical problems and improving software stability and performance.
