Profile: https://flows.cv/shrutiparab

I’m an Embedded Systems Engineer with 1 year of hands-on industry experience and a Master’s degree in Electrical & Computer Engineering from UMass Amherst. I specialize in developing efficient and reliable firmware for microcontroller-based systems and enjoy working at the intersection of hardware and software.

💡 My background includes:

Programming in Embedded C/C++ for real-time systems

Working with communication protocols like SPI, I2C, UART, and BLE

Developing IoT and automation solutions using STM32, Raspberry Pi, and MQTT

Using tools like JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers for hardware debugging

RTOS concepts and basic Linux/CLI development experience

📦 Past projects include a smart parking system, air monitoring device, and multilevel occupancy detection — all built with real-world constraints in mind.

I’m actively seeking full-time embedded systems or firmware engineering opportunities where I can contribute to impactful hardware-driven products and grow with a passionate team.
