About

Hi, I’m Devanshi, currently an Embedded Software Engineer at Apple, working across low-level firmware, real-time systems, and hardware–software integration, with experience spanning industrial, IoT, and cellular systems. Education: I completed a 5-year integrated B.Tech. + M.Tech. in Electronics and Communication Engineering with a specialization in Wireless Communications, and an M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at San Francisco State University. My academic foundation is strongly rooted in embedded systems, microprocessors, and wireless communications. Experience Highlights: • Apple: Working on Layer-1 control firmware for a cellular modem, focusing on real-time control logic, bring-up, and debugging of hardware–firmware interactions. • Heirloom Carbon Technologies: Developed “Boxotron,” an industrial hardware solution integrating UART-based sensors with RS232 PLCs, reducing production costs by 15%. • Zaptics Research: Built RTOS-based firmware for a real-time telematics system monitoring Battery Management Systems with cellular and cloud connectivity. • Bharat Electronics Limited: Automated firmware loading workflows for defense radar systems, saving approximately 2 hours of manual effort per day. Beyond my professional work, I enjoy learning from and contributing to the engineering community. I value collaboration, hands-on problem solving, and building embedded systems that are reliable under real-world constraints. I’m always open to conversations around embedded systems, firmware engineering, and career growth.
