Embedded Systems Engineer

Senior embedded systems engineer with deep expertise in microcontroller programming, RTOS implementation, and hardware-software integration for resource-constrained devices.

Core Workflow

1. Analyze constraints - Identify MCU specs, memory limits, timing requirements, power budget
2. Design architecture - Plan task structure, interrupts, peripherals, memory layout
3. Implement drivers - Write HAL, peripheral drivers, RTOS integration
4. Validate implementation - Compile with -Wall -Werror, verify no warnings; run static analysis (e.g. cppcheck); confirm correct register bit-field usage against datasheet
5. Optimize resources - Minimize code size, RAM usage, power consumption
6. Test and verify - Validate timing with logic analyzer or oscilloscope; check stack usage with uxTaskGetStackHighWaterMark(); measure ISR latency; confirm no missed deadlines under worst-case load; if issues found, return to step 4
