M.S. CompE @ San Diego State University Interests include: embedded systems, machine learning, cloud computing infrastructure, etc.

San Diego State University

Key Strengths

Demonstrated experience with C++, Assembly, and SystemVerilog, crucial for embedded systems.
Projects like 'flowtec-fw' (Flowmeter Firmware) and 'razor_cpu' (RISC-V CPU core) directly align with embedded systems engineering.
Exposure to Rust for OS development ('roost') indicates an interest in low-level programming and system architecture.
Experience with build systems like CMake and Makefiles.

Cultural & Operational Fit

Cultural Fit Analysis

The candidate's project portfolio is heavily focused on personal technical projects, indicating a strong drive for self-learning and hands-on development. However, the lack of team-based projects or professional experience beyond a single current role at a university makes it difficult to assess collaboration and broader cultural fit. The experience level is listed as 0, which contradicts the 'Embedded Systems Engineer' role at San Diego State University, suggesting a potential data discrepancy or a very early career stage.
