Senior Hardware Design Engineer
I am looking to further my career in the fields of electrical engineering that I find interesting: device
design. Over 16 years, I have accumulated work experience with two great companies. I have
designed oscilloscope subsystems and I have written software CAD tools that support RTL design. I
have built IoT devices that automate many of my hobbies. I would like to pursue jobs concerning
device design; particularly devices that automate tasks.
Sensors.
Sensors are interesting because we (people who are curious) keep trying to sample our world and
measure it. I have taken classes in DSP and performed well. I have worked with premier ADC
engineers, and I know I like the field. I would like to work on devices that sample the real world and
enable people to use those sample points.
Internet of Things.
Internet of Things will provide automation to our lives. I have written and taught classes on basic IoT
device design. I have used the concepts of IoT to automate several hobbies. I would like to pursue
device design that gives me experience in networking devices.
Device Design.
Computation and SW will provide wonderful methods of controlling devices. Therefore, device design
will always meld hardware engineering with software engineering. I can now solve problems in either
domain. I can now use both HW and SW to design a device, expanding my creativity.
I am looking forward to learning more about career opportunities with your company.
Thank you for reading my cover letter.
