I am Marek Gunis, a hardware design engineer with 20+ years of experience delivering robust embedded electronics for space, automotive, medical, and IoT applications. I lead full product development from concept to production, focusing on high-reliability power electronics, PCB layouts, EMC/ EMI compliance, and thorough verification. I enjoy turning complex requirements into manufacturable, certification-ready designs that perform in harsh environments. I thrive on cross-disciplinary collaboration, design optimization, and hands-on testing. I stay curious about new technologies (GaN, high-voltage design, signal integrity) and am committed to mentoring teams and delivering on-brand, dependable solutions that meet customer needs while enabling efficient production and maintenance.
