Hi there 👋

About Me

Hello, I'm an embedded systems engineer who loves to build robust, highly readable, and maintainable firmware for embedded devices. I've been working on embedded systems for 7+ years now. Also, I've been working remotely for the last 3 years now, and I LOVE IT 🌟

My Work Experience Timeline Summary

• 2022-now. Working on a Low-Earth Orbit Satellite system to provide 24/7 IoT connectivity anywhere in the world.
• 2020-2022. Built tracker device to track heavy machinery such as excavators, and super big trucks. Developed firmware to run the devices 24/7 for years.
• 2019-2020. Built tracker device for humans. Using Bluetooth technology to track human movement (indoor) and presence.
• 2018-2019. Built a self-checkout machine for the biggest e-commerce startup in Indonesia.
• 2016-2018. Built the tiniest smartcard reader that can be attached to Android smartphones.

My Skill Set

• Firmware Architecture Design. A very important step that many engineers missed. Without proper architecture design, your firmware will be destined to be super-hard to maintain and add features.
• Firmware Documentation. Without proper documentation, people will waste time to understand and follow your firmware.
• Firmware Testing. I love and use Test-Driven Development in my day-to-day work.
• Testing Automation. Usually I use CI/CD to deliver fast and good firmware without breaking existing code.
• Programming Language. I'm fluent in speaking embedded C and C++ (especially the modern version like C++11, C++17, and C++20). Also able to speak Python and C#.
