Product firmware
ESP32 (Arduino, PlatformIO, and ESP-IDF), AVR/Arduino, STM32/GD32, and RP2040. The goal is behaviour that still works after a reboot, a bad network, and a firmware update.
Electrical engineer
Firmware for devices that leave the bench.
I write the software inside ESP32, STM32, and Raspberry Pi products: sensors, radios, displays, and the path from the board to a dashboard. Nearly seven years of that work, for teams that need a field unit.

What I have actually shipped
01
Sayapatri contactless payment terminal
Card tap → ESP32 → Wi-Fi or GSM → payment flow
Two ESP32 payment terminals. One takes the amount from a phone over BLE and joins shop Wi-Fi. The other uses a keypad, a battery, and a cellular modem.
02
Addify 3D printer
Touch panel → STM32 TouchGFX → PID thermal control
The Addify printer’s thermal UI on STM32: TouchGFX screens from the supplied designs, PNG assets, PID on the heater, and a developer mode for the display and touch.
03
Remote hive monitor
Weight, climate, GPS, solar → ESP32 → MQTT → ThingsBoard
A field node for a hive: weight, temperature and humidity, GPS, and battery or solar voltage, reported to ThingsBoard. A cellular modem is part of the unit.
04
Touchscreen data logger
Sensors → ESP32-S3 → LVGL panel → log
ESP32-S3 logger for 4.3 inch and 7 inch panels. It takes temperature and pressure over serial and BLE, stores the log, and can print or plot it.
05
Clinical cart kiosk
QR on Pi → UART → ESP32-S3 → ST7701 vitals UI
A Raspberry Pi reads a QR code and passes the identifier over UART to an ESP32-S3, which shows patient vitals on an RGB LCD.
06
Perfume dispenser
Button → Nayax MDB → Raspberry Pi → relay
A Raspberry Pi perfume dispenser. A Nayax reader takes a card over MDB, and the Pi pulses one of five relays only after the payment is approved.

03 / Services
Where I am useful
Radios and field setup
BLE provisioning (including Nordic UART-style command protocols), Wi-Fi captive portals, ESP-NOW, and cellular: SIMCom A7670 / LilyGo T-Call, SMS, PPP, and a 4G hotspot.
Device to cloud
MQTT and HTTPS into ThingsBoard, Azure IoT Hub, and HiveMQ. Credentials in NVS, a queue when the link drops, and a way back into setup mode when the network is wrong.
