IoT and Embedded Systems Developer | Industrial IoT | MQTT|PCB Design
I develop Industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions that connect embedded devices, PCB-based hardware, PLC systems, industrial networks, sensors, gateways, and cloud platforms to deliver reliable real-time data monitoring and automation. From industrial monitoring and smart manufacturing to remote asset management, SCADA integration, and connected-device platforms, I help businesses build scalable IoT systems that improve operational visibility, data reliability, and efficiency. Whether you're developing a new IIoT product or upgrading existing industrial infrastructure, I can help with embedded systems, PCB design, PLC integration, industrial data networks, device connectivity, and cloud-based monitoring. What I Can Build - Industrial IoT Solutions: End-to-end systems connecting industrial equipment, sensors, PLCs, gateways, cloud platforms, and monitoring dashboards. - PLC and SCADA Integration: Connect PLCs, RTUs, and industrial equipment with SCADA platforms, monitoring systems, and enterprise applications. - Embedded Systems and PCB Design: Develop embedded device solutions and support hardware integration for connected industrial products. - Industrial Data Acquisition: Collect, process, validate, and transmit real-time data from machines, sensors, and industrial control systems. - Industrial Network Connectivity: Integrate devices using MQTT, Modbus RTU/TCP, OPC UA, DNP3, IEC 104, CAN/J1939, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and other relevant communication technologies. - Edge Computing and Gateways: Build edge data-processing workflows using Python, Linux, Docker, Raspberry Pi, and industrial gateways. - Cloud and Backend Integration: Connect industrial data to AWS IoT Core, Azure IoT Hub, REST APIs, databases, and custom backend services. - Monitoring and Analytics: Build dashboards, alerts, historical data views, equipment monitoring, and operational reporting using ThingsBoard, Grafana, and InfluxDB. - Automation and Remote Monitoring: Enable remote visibility into equipment status, energy consumption, environmental conditions, and industrial processes. PLC, Data and Network Integration I focus on reliable data flow between industrial devices and software platforms. This includes PLC data acquisition, industrial network configuration and integration, protocol communication, gateway connectivity, telemetry processing, and secure data transmission. Depending on the project, I can help integrate Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, and other industrial communication protocols to move data between equipment, edge systems, SCADA platforms, and cloud applications. Technologies and Protocols - Industrial Automation: PLC, RTU, SCADA, HMI, industrial equipment integration - Industrial Networks: Ethernet, MQTT, Modbus RTU/TCP, OPC UA, DNP3, IEC 104, CAN/J1939 - Embedded and Edge: Embedded systems, PCB design, Python, Linux, Raspberry Pi, Docker - Cloud and Backend: AWS IoT Core, Azure IoT Hub, Node.js, REST APIs, GraphQL - Monitoring and Data: ThingsBoard, Grafana, InfluxDB, time-series databases, telemetry analytics - Deployment and Operations: CI/CD, logging, monitoring, containerization, production deployment Industries and Applications - Industrial automation and smart manufacturing - Energy and utilities - Industrial equipment monitoring - Smart buildings and facility management - Transportation and logistics - Environmental and energy monitoring - Connected industrial devices - Enterprise IoT platforms My Development Approach I evaluate the complete system, including device connectivity, PLC communication, industrial networks, data acquisition, edge processing, backend services, dashboards, and deployment requirements. This helps identify potential issues involving communication failures, inconsistent data, network reliability, latency, scalability, and monitoring before they affect production operations. I can work with your existing industrial architecture or help plan a new IIoT solution, from proof of concept and MVP development through integration and production deployment. If you're building an Industrial IoT platform, integrating PLCs with cloud systems, developing embedded devices, designing PCBs, or improving industrial data collection and network connectivity, let's discuss your requirements and the most practical way to implement your solution.
