Hardware Design
Engineer

El Sewedy Electrometer

I contribute to energy-meter platforms manufactured at more than one million units annually and deployed across six countries.

From mixed-signal design and PCB development to debugging and production release, I work with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and quality teams to turn engineering requirements into reliable products.

  • Support design transfer across four international manufacturing facilities.
  • Helped reduce hardware development cycles by approximately 20% through reusable circuitry and design standardization.
  • Support component selection, design changes, and hardware verification throughout the product lifecycle.
