Selected work / 2023—26
Built for the
real world.
From the first architecture sketch to the last emissions test, I like owning the full loop.
02
AGV · Sensor fusion
A wider field of view, without a wider bill.
Developed a hybrid multi-zone obstacle-detection sensor for AGVs within an existing form factor, improving coverage and accuracy while cutting system cost.
03
ASRS · Motion firmware
Stop within 2 mm. At 3 metres per second.
Built control firmware for a high-speed storage and retrieval system, tuning motion and alignment under real-world loads of up to 40 kg.
04
Mixed signal · EMI / EMC
Designed for the lab. Hardened for the floor.
Designed a 6-layer, 250+ component mixed-signal board with isolated communication and on-board power, then worked through radiated-emissions failures to improve reliability.
How I work
Across the
whole stack.
Good embedded products happen in the space between disciplines. That's where I do my best work.
Hardware architecture
System partitioning, schematics, stack-ups, controlled impedance, high-speed and mixed-signal design.
Bring-up & validation
Board-level debug, system integration, root-cause analysis, EMI/EMC testing, and production support.
Embedded systems
STM32, AVR, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, C/C++, Python, shell scripting, and engineering automation.
