I’m an embedded hardware and product development engineer based in Belgrade, Serbia, with a strong full-cycle focus—from turning requirements into detailed specs, to building schematics and multilayer PCBs, testing, and supporting manufacturing and production. I enjoy hands-on integration work across electronics and firmware, and I’ve worked with platforms including STM32, ESP32, TMS320, MSP430, and AT91. Alongside hardware engineering, I also build practical software to support development and automation using Python on Linux (including asyncio, multithreading, data tools, REST APIs, and unit testing), plus version control and CI/CD workflows with Docker and GitHub Actions. Whether collaborating with clients to refine system needs or debugging hardware-software interactions through the lifecycle, I aim to deliver reliable products that meet both technical and real-world manufacturing requirements.…I’m an embedded hardware and product development engineer based in Belgrade, Serbia, with a strong full-cycle focus—from turning requirements into detailed specs, to building schematics and multilayer PCBs, testing, and supporting manufacturing and production.
