About
I help product developers and small businesses turn electronic concepts into practical, manufacturing-ready PCB designs.
My capabilities include schematic capture, component selection, PCB layout, design review, and production-file preparation using KiCad, EasyEDA, and Fusion 360 Electronics. I specialise in ESP32 and microcontroller-based hardware, IoT devices, sensor interfaces, communication circuits, control systems, and power-supply integration.
I have hands-on experience taking designs beyond the CAD stage, including ordering assembled PCBs, testing prototypes, troubleshooting hardware, and improving designs based on real test results.
My services include:
• Schematic capture and PCB layout
• ESP32 and embedded-hardware design
• PCB review and design improvement
• Component selection and BOM preparation
• Gerber, drill, pick-and-place, and assembly files
• Design-for-manufacturing checks
• Prototype troubleshooting and revision
I prioritise clear communication, practical engineering decisions, component availability, manufacturability, and organised project documentation.
If you have a product idea, existing schematic, or PCB that needs improvement, send me your requirements and I will assess the most effective path forward.
