About Me

I specialize in building robust automation and test systems that seamlessly integrate embedded hardware, robotics, and software to optimize manufacturing processes. My work includes developing multi-threaded VB.NET applications for parallel BLE testing, designing Angular dashboards that visualize real-time production data through .NET APIs and complex SQL Server queries, and crafting C# based tools for serial and TCP/IP communication with embedded devices.

I’ve implemented secure, scalable workflows using AWS CLI and custom scripts to manage cloud environment synchronization, and I maintain a strong focus on software-hardware interaction stability. Additionally, I develop cross-platform mobile applications that communicate with embedded hardware over BLE, TCP, and USB, ensuring consistent performance and backend integration.

My skill set combines device interfacing, full-stack development, and deep database expertise to deliver efficient, reliable, and scalable solutions tailored to high-demand production environments.
