I’m Ali Najd, an Electrical & Electronics Engineer and PCB Designer with 4+ years of hands-on experience turning circuit ideas into reliable, production-ready hardware—especially for medical and industrial embedded systems. I work across PCB design, analog/RF circuit development, and embedded firmware, using tools like Altium Designer and microcontrollers such as STM32, AVR, and HOLTEK. I’ve led end-to-end projects including Bluetooth-enabled hearing-aid hardware, blood-pressure monitoring algorithms (published in an IEEE-indexed conference paper), and low-noise ECG acquisition boards, along with multiple quadcopter power-management and battery-management designs. I enjoy collaborating with clients to translate requirements into clear schematics, robust PCB layouts, and well-tested embedded code, and I’m open to remote or on-site opportunities worldwide.…

Work Experience

Freelancer at Freelance
May 1, 2023 - Present
Provided SCH and PCB design services and performed microcontroller R&D tasks. Worked on embedded programming and hardware design efforts for prototype and research-oriented medical/home devices, including firmware development and initial hardware review.
R&D Engineer at Tarahan Ehsas Nik Fanavari (NIKTED)
May 1, 2021 - April 30, 2023
Led PCB design and analog circuit development for four medical-device projects: non-contact thermometers (x2), a home blood-pressure monitor, and a digital contact thermometer. Designed a low-noise 4-layer Bluetooth hearing-aid board with miniaturized form factor. Implemented blood-pressure measurement using Gaussian curve fitting to improve noise immunity (results published at ICBME 2022, IEEE). Coded STM32 and HOLTEK microcontrollers in C and used MATLAB for validation; conducted preliminary research for a portable EEG device.
