I am a senior electronics engineer with 14+ years of experience in end-to-end electronic product design, spanning idea generation, hardware, firmware, PCB layout, and production. I specialize in analog, power, and RF circuits, multilayer PCB design, and microcontroller programming, with hands-on experience delivering reliable hardware for challenging environments. I am passionate about turning innovative concepts into real, manufacturable hardware and leading cross-functional teams to achieve seamless integration across hardware, software, and mechanical domains. Currently I design and develop board-level systems for space applications with SUPARCO, including RF and power boards for LEO satellites. I create and manage schematic symbols and footprint libraries, perform design reviews, and document interfaces and system diagrams. I enjoy mentoring junior engineers and steadily improving workflows from ideation to validation, testing, and production readiness.
