I am a fourth-year Computer Engineering student with NTU's Renaissance Engineering Programme. With computer engineering being the link between the hardware and software components of computer systems, my interests lie in IOT firware development and embedded systems, though I do strive to excel in all areas of software and hardware development.

I worked with Ackcio's embedded development team as an apprentice under SGInnovate's Summation Programme.
During this time, I developed software for a production test jig, including scripting test procedures, increasing stability and accuracy of existing tests, and improving the UI/UX of the system, mainly working in Python, with some HTML. I also enabled writing of persistent metadata to boards via a UART bridge and built a diagnosis software to generate statistics from product logs, allowing on-site diagnosis of issues.
All this involved not only proficiency in design thinking and software scripting, but also knowledge of the underlying system architecture that runs on the products.
As a firmware engineering intern, I developed firmware for health-monitoring devices based on ARM Cortex-M4 (Maxim MAX32630FTHR, Nordic nRF52840) and ESP32 processors, mainly working in C and C++.
Through the year of internship I contributed to the development of a wrist-wearable smart device, and a desktop touch-screen health monitor.
This consisted of interfacing peripherals with microcontrollers and implementing required functionality (e.g. sensor communication, OTA upgrades, Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity, flash storage, touchscreen display UI etc.). Most of the interfacing was done using I2C and SPI. I was also involved in breadboard prototyping for the desktop device.
Proficient with C, C++, Python, Visual Basic and BASH scripting.
Basic experience with Java, HTML / CSS / JavaScript, Lua, Assembly, and Verilog.
Worked with Linux environments, ARM firmware programming, Raspberry Pi, and Arduino.
Familiar with data analytics, basic UI/UX development, and relational/hierarchical databases.
This is a double degree programme, where I will graduate with a Bachelor's of Engineering in Computer Engineering, and a Masters of Science in Technology management. Because of its multidisciplinary nature, REP students are both under NTU's College of Engineering and the Nanyang Business School.
One other feature of REP is the year-long (or two-semster-long) exchange programme. In my case, I spent one semester at the National University of Singapore (NUS) and one semester at the Univeristy of British Columbia (UBC) in Year 3.
