My name is Will. I'm an engineer and designer currently living in beautiful Cumbria in the UK. My technical interests span embedded systems, digital signal processing, and control systems, particularly in the fields of audio, energy systems, and agricultural technology.

I have a background in embedded systems and the research and development of scientific data acquisition and control systems, primarily for use on particle accelerators.

This site is for me to share what I've learnt on the blog, and archive various projects in my portfolio.

I have a range of experience across both analogue and digtial electronics design as well as software development:

Hardware design:

Requirements capture, system-level design, component selection, prototyping, analogue and digital electronics, circuit simulation (SPICE), microcontrollers (Atmel/Microchip AVR/PIC, STM32, Espressif ESP8266/ESP32), FPGAs & SoCs (Microchip, Lattice, Xilinx).

CAD for electronics panels and enclosures using AutoCAD.

PCB Design:

Schematic capture, PCB layout and routing. Multi-layer, mixed-signal, high-speed PCBs. Using Cadence OrCAD or KiCad.

Firmware and software development:

Skilled in C, C++, and Python. Experienced with Arduino, ESP8266/ESP32, Raspberry Pi and STM32 ecosystems. Basic system administration on Linux.
