About

NOTE: Will consider any and all job offers in the following markets related to (but not limited to) hardware design, to pursue some of my hobbies even more professionally: * Studio & live: audio & lighting; audio dsp, video, etc. * 3D printing * EVs & EVSEs, etc. ==== I have over 10 years of experience working in R&D setting of high-tech products and technologies in the area of digital signal processing, radio frequencies, and hardware design in academic, civilian, military and space sectors. I've participated in development of multiple products and tech demonstrators at every stage of development from the very beginning to the working demonstrator and/or final product. While I specialise in FPGAs, digital & radio electronics, I find hi-tech & manufacturing technology exciting and full of new stuff to learn and apply to day-to-day electronics engineering. This, and lots of experience working with multidisciplinary teams allows me to provide various degrees of expertise on multitude of topics related to developing new solutions for products and technologies. I've had a pleasure in working in multiple interdisciplinary and international teams of brilliant people both remotely and on-site. I have my own remote electronics lab and have experience in helping companies enable their employees working remotely in hardware development setting sharing access to developed hardware, measurement equipment and other required assets. I have practical experience in leading specialised and multidisciplinary teams of engineers, as well as supporting project managers and business developers. I strive to get my team-members the best tools, support and comfort I can to make their input to the projects most rewarding.
