Accomplished and creative firmware engineer with a passion for all things embedded. Successful as a team member or when guiding others.Career with excellent venues for developing unique firmware and hardware solutions based on a wide range of embedded controllers; ARM Cortex M0/3/4/7, AVR, AVR32 and custom DSPs and sequencers, also multicore systems.•Idea to Finished Product Mentality: Confident in taking ideas or research into volume production. Keen in predicting issues, architecting structured solution to problem and selecting innovative technologies. Uses structured development flow using modelling (SDL/UML/Matlab and software models) and a top down approach.•Design and implementation of ultra low power embedded systems. Throughout career, worked on energy constrained systems (Batteries and energy harvesting) and applied combination of firmware and hardware knowledge to conserve maximum energy.•Capacitive Touch Interfaces. Highly experienced in all aspects of this technology; electrical principle and development of sensing schemes, filtering and noise mitigation, high level object tracking algorithms. Executed numerous research projects that led to vital IP such as active stylus digitizer. Proven track record through patents and volume products. Worked closely with IC design teams on chip architecture.•Wireless Sensor Networks. Implemented various Bluetooth, ZigBee and RF4CE stacks with focus on low program and resource footprint. Used various WiFi and BT/LE chipsets. Taken numerous 2.4GHz products through compliance (FCC/ETSI) and conformance (Interop events) testing.•Reusable and Scalable Code. Experienced using RTOS and software frameworks to ensure that firmware is malleable as requirements and features change. Compiler and hardware abstractions. Using thread/RTOS model as design principle.•Programming Language Agnostic. Confident with a range of low to high level programming languages: Assembly language, C, Cpp, Java, Python and Matlab.
