Josiah Varghese

I’m a recent Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Guelph with a strong foundation in embedded systems, IoT, and real-time software development. I’ve worked on hands-on projects involving microcontrollers, sensor integration, multithreaded routines, and cloud-connected automation. My experience spans both hardware-level programming and higher-level scripting, with a focus on performance, reliability, and system responsiveness.

I’m passionate about learning new technologies, writing clean and efficient code, and building solutions that connect the physical and digital worlds.

As a Computer Engineering graduate, I’ve gained hands-on professional experience in system administration, web development, and embedded systems. I’ve led the redesign and deployment of responsive digital platforms with integrated payment systems, implemented server-side automation and backup strategies, and coordinated development tasks using Agile tools. I’ve also managed IT infrastructure and live streaming setups, ensuring seamless audio-visual operations and continuous service availability.

My work reflects a strong ability to blend hardware knowledge with software proficiency to deliver reliable, real-world tech solutions.

I hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Engineering from the University of Guelph, graduating in June 2024. My studies included a rigorous blend of hardware and software courses—ranging from programming for engineers, digital systems and microcomputer interfacing, to advanced topics like embedded system design, real-time systems, computer architecture, and VLSI digital design . Through these, I gained practical experience programming ARM-based microcontrollers, designing HDL modules for hardware/software interfacing, and optimizing systems with real-time constraints.

My lab work and design courses challenged me to build and test complete embedded systems and FPGA-based solutions, reinforcing my skills in multidisciplinary system development. Additionally, my capstone involved architecting and integrating a full-stack hardware‑software prototype—drawing on sensor interfacing, performance optimization, and team-based engineering collaboration.
