Jitendra Zala

I am a Senior Embedded Systems & IoT Engineer with over 14 years of experience in designing and delivering reliable, production-ready embedded products. My expertise spans end-to-end product development, including system architecture, hardware design, firmware development, wireless integration, testing, and manufacturing support.

I have strong hands-on experience with MCUs/SoCs, Embedded C/C++, RTOS-based systems, and low-power design. I specialize in wireless and connectivity technologies such as BLE, Wi-Fi, LTE/NB-IoT, GNSS, NFC, Zigbee, LoRa, and UWB, along with standard protocols including I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, and TCP/IP.

I have successfully worked on industrial and consumer IoT products, focusing on robustness, EMI/EMC reliability, power optimization, and scalability. I am comfortable collaborating with cross-functional teams, translating requirements into technical solutions, and supporting products from prototype through mass production.

I am passionate about building high-quality embedded systems and am seeking opportunities where I can contribute my technical depth, problem-solving skills, and product ownership in Embedded Systems, Firmware, Hardware, or IoT Engineering roles.

14+ Years of Industry Experience

Led end-to-end embedded product development, from requirement analysis and system architecture to prototyping, validation, and mass production.

Designed and developed embedded firmware using Embedded C/C++, RTOS, and bare-metal environments for multiple MCU and SoC platforms.

Hands-on experience in hardware design, including schematic capture, multilayer PCB layout (up to 6 layers), component selection, and BOM optimization.

Integrated and optimized wireless communication technologies such as BLE, Wi-Fi, LTE/LTE-M, NB-IoT, GNSS, NFC, Zigbee, LoRa, and UWB.

Implemented and debugged communication protocols including I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, USB, and TCP/IP.

Developed low-power and battery-operated IoT devices, focusing on power optimization, sleep modes, and energy-efficient firmware design.

Worked extensively on EMI/EMC robustness, signal integrity, and hardware reliability for industrial environments.

Integrated various sensors, PMICs, displays, storage devices, and peripherals for real-time and connected applications.

Supported manufacturing, testing, and certification, including board bring-up, debugging, production testing, and field issue resolution.

Collaborated with cross-functional teams including mechanical, cloud, mobile app, QA, and manufacturing partners to deliver complete solutions.

Contributed to technical documentation, design reviews, and mentoring of junior engineers.

Bachelor of Technologies in Electronics & Communication.
