I am a Firmware Engineer at Intel working on Optane DC Persistent Memory.
I enjoy writing Firmware & Embedded Systems close since it keeps me close to the hardware. Though I've never actually been great with complex circuits. Firmware allows me to still get to know what's going on under the hood.
Over the years I've done work all the way up the stack. Firmware Development, Server Administration, Database Administration, Back end, and Front end development. I would consider myself fairly general purpose. I like to take time to dabble in new things in order to keep myself well rounded.
