About

PROFILE

Hello, I am Alexander! I make software that tricks silicon to work for you.

I was drawn to engineering by the power of turning ideas into something real. I studied at Massey University, completing a Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) majoring in Mechatronics. After graduating, I moved into Embedded Software, where I get to use my skills to help the people and community around me.

I'm currently open to junior engineer roles where I can keep building on my embedded software and mechatronics experience.
