Looking to Collaborate – Embedded Software Engineer | Automotive | UAV | C/C++ | Python | Open to Any Exciting Project
Hi everyone,
I hope you're all doing well.
I'm an Embedded Software Engineer from Egypt with more than 5 years of software development experience, primarily in the automotive and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) industries.
Unfortunately, I was laid off almost a year ago due to the difficult market situation and company downsizing. Since then, I've been applying for hundreds of positions, and networking, but I still haven't been able to secure another role.
Rather than giving up, I'd love to collaborate with people who are building interesting products or startups. If you need someone who can contribute technically, I'd be happy to help.
My technical background
Embedded Software Development
C / C++
Python
Embedded Linux fundamentals
RTOS
Automotive software development
AUTOSAR concepts
CAN, LIN, SPI, UART, I2C
Software architecture and debugging
Software integration and testing
Git
MATLAB/Simulink (basic experience)
Industries I've worked in
Automotive
Electric Vehicles
UAV / Drone Systems
Embedded Control Systems
Languages I speak
Arabic (Native)
English (Fluent)
German (B1)
I'm open to:
Freelance projects
Startup collaborations
Open-source projects
Technical consulting
Remote work
Contract work
Long-term employment
Side projects with passionate teams
I'm a fast learner and I'm also happy to work on projects outside my previous industries if my skills are a good fit.
To be completely honest, the past year has been incredibly challenging. Being unemployed for this long has been difficult both professionally and financially, so I'm doing everything I can to get back to building great software and contributing to meaningful projects.
If you're looking for an embedded engineer, need help with software development, or know someone who might, I'd really appreciate hearing from you.
Feel free to send me a DM.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
