## Experience
### Embedded Systems Engineer
Company: Olibra LLC
Location: Cresskill, NJ, USA (Hybrid)
Date: April 2026 — Present
About: Premium home automation focused on quality, security and ease-of-use
Website: https://bondhome.io/
Responsibilities:
- Developed and verified firmware for a multitude of home automation systems targeting different computer architectures and scopes, particularly Xtensa and ARMv7, engineered both on top of bare-metal POSTIX shims or FreeRTOS.
- Developed firwmare in multiple battery-constrained scenarios, focusing on the tightening of sleeping algorithms while maintaining RF and BLE control reliability.
- Introduced formal verification methods (TLA+) for quality control processes in critical software modules, with an emphasis on coordination of distributed systems/state machines. Resolved major reliability failure this way.
- Also developed high-level firmware HTTP and BLE Modules/APIs for integration with Android and iOS applications.
