About Aleksandr
Hi, I'm Aleksandr — an electronics engineer with 6+ years in hardware development and 10+ years of hands-on electronics repair.
Today I can take a hardware product from concept to working prototype: schematic design and PCB layout in Altium Designer (up to 4-layer boards), firmware in C/C++ (AVR and STM32), and enclosure design in SolidWorks. I also handle SMT prototype assembly in-house (stencil, reflow) and 3D-printed enclosures.
I do all hand soldering myself, from 01005 passives up to large BGAs (including Intel-class CPU packages), and can handle small production runs.
Strong hands-on bring-up and debugging: oscilloscope, signal generator, fault-finding down to component level.
I also build the companion software around the hardware — configuration and test GUIs, flashing utilities, and small desktop tools (C#/.NET, Python) — using AI-assisted development to deliver them quickly.
I'm currently moving into higher-complexity designs (6-layer stackups, high-speed interfaces); I haven't yet done FPGA + DDR routing in production, but I'm actively building toward it and open to projects where I can grow.
