  • Embedded C / C++
  • STM32, ESP32, nRF52
  • UART / SPI / I2C / CAN
  • BLE integration
  • Firmware architecture and debugging

RFID / RF / Hardware

  • RFID system prototyping
  • RF hardware integration
  • Antenna-aware product design
  • Digital electronics and hardware validation
  • PCB design and board bring-up
  • Rapid prototyping and enclosure integration

IoT & Software

  • Device-to-cloud architecture
  • Telemetry and real-time monitoring
  • OTA update workflows
  • Python, Node.js, React
  • REST APIs and data systems
