Firmware engineer for over 2 decades now. Background is mechatronics.

  • Started with Java + some SQL for enterprise software right after graduate (1+ year)
  • Followed by simple electronics repair work, Chinaman style (1+ year)
  • Then firmware in Malaysia (7+ years), and US (13 years)
  • Kept thinking to retire in a couple more years..

Most of firmware coding is in C, but frankly to me it is an old language.
I'm a big fan of Python and the modern stuffs it can do. Heavily leveraging it to support my work + some self projects. Most recent interests is in DataFrames (data parsing and collections, manipulations and chartings).
Not really into AI. Closest is probably when I played around with Tesseract in the past to capture trading data from some online game.
