Freelance Electronics Hardware Engineer

From schematic to production ready PCB, CE-compliant, efficient and reliable.

Who I am

I’m a Belgian freelance electronics hardware engineer focused on PCB design and hardware development.

From the first schematic to a production-ready design, every step is handled with care and precision. Firmware bring-up, mechanical fit checks, and thorough documentation ensure a smooth path to manufacturing.

Delivering reliable, well-documented hardware that integrates seamlessly into your product is what I love most.

I support companies across industrial, medical, IoT, maritime, and defence sectors — helping them turn ideas into robust, manufacturable electronics.

PCB Design & Layout

• Schematic capture & component selection
• Stackup definition, routing, impedance control
• Multilayer, rigid and flex
• EMC/EMI-aware design
• Signal & power integrity simulations
• Thermal analysis
• Design for manufacturability (DfM) and design for test (DfT)
• Production support including preparation of manufacturing files and design of production test interfaces and fixtures

Hardware Design

• Low-power design for battery-powered and energy harvesting devices.
  Quiescent current optimisation.
• Power supply design for processors and FPGA's (low voltage, stable, low noise).
• Low-noise analog/sensor front-ends
• Interface circuits, protection features
• Robustness & reliability

Embedded Bring-Up

• MCU initialisation, clock setup
• Basic drivers for GPIO, I²C, SPI, UART, ADC/DAC
• Sensor readout and module integration (BLE, WiFi, cellular, ...)
• Prototype testing and board validation
• Production test firmware
• Handover to firmware teams

Mechanical Integration

• 3D PCB model integration
• Fit and clearance verification
• Connector accessibility checks
• Full assembly analysis
• Mechanical documentation for integration teams
• Design of basic 3D-printed parts (brackets, test fixtures, mounts)
