SEEKING WORK - Remote (based in Ithaca, NY) I'm an independent software developer with nearly a decade of experience building desktop software, web services and mobile apps. I don’t have a formal education in electrical engineering (I have a degree in math and comp. sci.) but I have spent a substantial amount of time learning this stuff on my own from books/internet/etc. coupled with hardware projects of my own and countless hours of tinkering. I’d like to work on more hardware projects professionally. I’d love to help you prototype a board, develop firmware for your existing project or even help with the non-embedded software side of whatever you’re building (i.e. server-side processing, web/mobile UI, data processing, etc.). If you’re looking for someone contract-to-hire or as a longer term collaborator in this space then I’d love to talk with you! Some additional miscellaneous details about me to give you a better idea of where I’m coming from: * I've worked with AVR, ARM Cortex-M (specifically STM32 and Nordic nRF51) and ESP8266 microcontrollers * comfortable writing nonblocking event loops or using an RTOS (Zephyr, FreeRTOS, ChibiOS) * experience interfacing with ICs via I2C/SPI/UART protocols * competent with basic analog electronics theory, design and troubleshooting * schematic design and PCB layout using KiCad * basic CAD (Fuson 360), mechanical design and 3D printing for things like enclosures, motor mounts, brackets, etc. * I have a home lab with all the necessary electronics tools (multimeters, oscilloscope, various soldering tools, microscope, etc.) * specific areas of interest include renewable energy harvesting, control/automation systems, networked sensors, li-ion battery management, switch-mode power topologies scott@scottnelson.co http://scottnelson.co http://scottnelson.co http://github.com/scttnlsn http://github.com/scttnlsn
