I'm a Mechatronics Engineering student with hands-on experience designing and shipping embedded systems — from custom PCBs and motor control firmware to autonomous robotics. I most enjoy the moments where electronics, mechanics, and software have to agree with each other.
Highlights so far: 1st place in the Autonomous category at EVER 2025 with the APEX racing team (designed the 3-board STM32 control system from scratch), 10+ custom PCBs in production for industrial and agricultural clients, and core firmware for medical equipment at ChemTech.
Professional roles in embedded systems, hardware design, and teaching. View full details on the dedicated page.
View Work ExperienceA selection of embedded, hardware, and robotics work.
Developed an EV control system from scratch for Shell Eco-Marathon using three STM32 microcontrollers. Features FOC, custom PCBs, electronic differential, and LoRaWAN telemetry.
Built a TCP server in C++ to receive and execute remote PC commands, utilizing a modular architecture and SOLID principles.
Developed over 10 custom PCBs for various industrial and agricultural products, including a refrigerator tester and a LoRa-based pump & valve management network.
Designed and built a fast-paced remote control car heavily equipped with various active actuators specifically intended for a competitive Robo-Soccer tournament.
Created a full infotainment dashboard on a Raspberry Pi 4B to monitor an EV, integrating live image processing for lane detection algorithms.
Directly interfaced a servo motor and LEDs using a Raspberry Pi 4B, controlled in real-time straight from a local web browser interface.
6-wheeled Mars rover simulation in ROS 2 Humble & Gazebo. Features realistic suspension, IMU, camera data processing, and active ArUco marker computer vision.
Built a self-navigating autonomous vehicle using a Raspberry Pi 4B and a 2D LiDAR sensor to dynamically map rooms and avoid obstacles.
Engineered the main hardware and embedded control logic for a medical Autoclave Sterilizer system at ChemTech, handling extreme pressure variables.
