Key Strengths

Strong proficiency in C++ and Rust, highly relevant for Embedded Systems.
Extensive personal projects demonstrating practical application of embedded concepts (e.g., AVR bare metal, FM radio receiver, custom assembler for ASIP).
Experience with low-level programming including Linker Script and Assembly.
Familiarity with build systems like Makefile and CMake.

Cultural & Operational Fit

Cultural Fit Analysis

The candidate's projects are primarily personal and highly technical, focusing on low-level embedded systems and hardware interaction. This indicates a strong passion for the target role. However, the lack of team-based projects or professional experience makes it difficult to assess collaboration or broader cultural fit. The project diversity is strong within the embedded domain but lacks breadth in other areas.
