Hey all! Today I'm sharing about my experiences in embedded software/embedded systems coding over the last 10 years. This includes high school, college, and work experiences - it doesn't include all the projects I've done because the video would be way too long then... Feel free to ask me questions in the comments section to clarify things! Cheers!

4th year in I.T. college and learning Embedded systems
Can you please guide from where i can start if i want to persue my career in embedded systems..
I live next to Tacoma.
your journey was my dream for last 2-3 years (class 9 to 12)
Communications and Electronics Degree -> C -> C++ -> Java -> Python -> Matlab -> Arduino -> STM32 -> Integration Ericsson -> Trying to get a Job in Embedded systems
Thanks for sharing!! :)
How'd the job hunt go???
Reply me buddy
You missed Assembly
Java?
MSP430 -> MSP432 -> ESP32 -> RP2040 and now STM32! I did my Bachelor in EE and fell in love with Embedded System and just finished my masters in computer engineering. I love your videos!!
Nice! Awesome storyline! Congrats on your masters! Cheers!!! And thank you for the support!!!
Sir can you tell we from where I can learn STM32
@@ammarahmed7370 low level learning has some tutorials. More on ESP32 I think, but a lot of the info transfers.
hi
iam entering into embedded systems cuz i want to feel how computers works
so since embedded systems are just weak computers I wan to start with this
where to and how to start learning about embedded system
is there some books out there?
I am basically clue less
Hi bro myself currently studying computer science engineering can I cope up with that physcis does it require more physcis knowledge for frimware engineering could u please answer my question
I started my programming/electronics journey with Visual basic (14 year old) -> Java -> python -> c++ -> c -> atmega328p -> esp8266 -> esp32 -> stm32 (now). Final exam of my EE bachelor's degree is in two days and recently got a job at a medium sized company as an Embedded system engineer focusing on iot products.
Thanks for sharing and congrats on your job! Cheers!
I thought esp32 is way better than stm32 for IoT why settle on stm32 help me understand kindly
@@muigaisimon4103 stm32 gives you some exposure on the ARM architecture plus its so much easier to start working on it because of the CubeMX and CubeIDE. ESP32 is also versatile
@@JamilKhan-hk1wl alright thanks will look at it

Nice to see a space for fellow embedded engineers! Recent EE graduate w/ an interest in IOT. Atmega8 -> ESP32 -> Xilinx FPGA -> STM32(now). Currently working in Telematics.
I also started as an EE and went into primarily Embedded Software. It's a fun world. The code you write has physical, and often critical, effects on the world, instead of some widget in a cloud or user device. We get the best bits of both hardware and software I think.
I too want to do the same
Bro how can I start my career pls guide me u have insta I'd pls give me bro
I just got into Frontend web development this year and this is Greidi telling me to be hard working, try out new stuffs, solve problems and never to stay at a job that isn't thrilling to me that's slow suicide. Thanks a bunch!
No Problem! glad it's been motivating :)
Your story is an inspiration... it feels genuine and honest; I could identify with your character as a reader reading a novel about a hero who overcame so many obstacles and conflicts to become his true self and show his inner element ...I could cite you as a role model for any aspiring engineering or technology student to imitate you and walk in your footsteps! All the best of luck!
Wow! Thank you so much! This means a lot to me my friend! Cheers!! 💚
Thank you for sharing your experience in embedded systems development! Subscribed!!! God bless you!!
Thank you for the support! :) cheers!
Greetings from Latvia! Just discovered your channel.
Found interesting similarities between us - also studied electrical engineering in Riga tho (did everything absolutely from scratch etc), and later transitioned to software engineering where I'm doing Java now and etc. And I'm good at it. EE kinda gave me a foundation for everything.
Your journey is quite impressive!

salam alyekum, what was your major in undergrad? I'm in CSE, fresher. can i be an embeded system designer or design circuits?
Well this video was amazing! it def motivates me! I am trying to incorporate embedded systems into power systems. Currently working on a HIL testbed for circuit protection! Its pretty cool!
Thank you! I appreciate it! Cheers!
I’m intrigued by what you doing. Can you tell a little more about the application
this is Cool and inspiring, right now i'm 20 failing my classes. I just discovered Mechatronics engineering seeing this guy video just give the motivation to keep going
Glad to hear it helped you with some motivation! And you got this my friend💪! Cheers!
Your first experience of making the board by hand is what kids need in the US. That was the catalyst probably. You should make a video of you doing it again. I am sure that will add fire to your channel too. Wish you the best!.
In my undergrad of Bachelors degree Mechatronics. Handled smart home project and RC car-line following, obstacle avoidance and simple remote control. Just having fun is all.. Looking forward to going deeper into Operating systems stuff
I really love your inspiring videos ❤
Thank you so much for the support my friend! Cheers!
As an informatics/electronics engineer, I found your channel interesting to me - great content. Greetings from Lithuania!
Thanks for the support! cheers!
I also just became a TA for digital systems design at my school as a sophomore, and I’ve got an internship at a large semiconductor company. I feel like I’m on the right track!
It's interesting how you mentioned your journey through trade school. Initially, I pursued graphic design but eventually dropped out of college. However, four years later, i decided to return to school to study engineering technology. This led me to a job working on drawbridges, where I gained experience in electrical work and learned how to program PLCs. Now, you're back in college pursuing a degree in computer science, but I’m considering switching to computer engineering due to my extensive experience with Arduino over the years. Additionally, in my previous job, i acquired programming skills in Python.
my bachlor was in electronics and i am currently preparing my master graduation project in embedded systems. i first started doing projects with arduino then i learned about PIC now i am learning the stm32 i can say i have a good level at hardware programming, i'm also learning how to do hardware design so yes i am like you i have no idea about the fancy high level stuff like AI Image processing... but my main focus right now is to master the fundamentals in embedded systems and how to creat efficient board then we'll see what i am gonna learn later.
Right on man! Thanks for sharing, I agree, getting down the fundamentals is important! Thanks for all the support! Cheers!

Hey! Thanks so much for this video!
Hey! You're welcome! Thanks for the support!
Subscribing for the journey 👍🏼
Great journey really inspiring
Thank you! :)
8051 (yeaaah we still learnt on them) -> arduino -> Kinetis K22 -> ESP32 (idf) -> some STM32 -> LPC55S69 -> nRF52840, along with lots of linux coding and hardware design, and some cryptography sprinkled in :)
Nice! Thanks for sharing man!
ATMega328 -> Verilog HDL -> Eplan (some how enter the electrical world) -> currently Raspberry Pi & Hardware designing for drone and embedded system. Feels like my path contains a wide range of fields.
Nice life journey! My embedded journey began in 2007, where the first thing teacher taught me is intel 8051 and Z80 😅. Then continue to ATMega family (no Arduino that time). Actually I enjoyed experience as embedded eng, but unfortunately there's no job as embedded eng at that time. So i join with one of oilfield service company as field Specialist but Embedded still on my brain. Until in 2016 I met ESP8266, that's IC make me more interested due to it's wifi+microcontroller. In 2018 that's my first time met with STM32F1
Thank you! And thanks for sharing your journey! Cheers!
Great video keep the content coming. It's the best video TH-cam would ever recommend me
Cheers! Thanks for the support!
wow props to the Estonian educations system! Having highschoolers be involved in such techy topics is very innovative.
Subscribed at 6.56K, can't wait to see the channel grow!
Thank you!
All the best for you!!
Great! Thanks for sharing your journey. I am beginner just into embedded systems and programming.
Thanks for the support! Hope you’re gonna have a good time exploring embedded systems!
this video remind me of my journey too. I too worked on Application development(python and C++) and currently working on Software development in embedded application(mostly requirements and testing software design). I want to merge my skill of python + C programming with embedded application development. I just read about python which is used for embedded testing but I am not getting the clear picture of how does it and also what are it's different use case of working python with C programming in the embedded application. Can you make a video explianing the use of python in hand with C?
PICAXE -> Arduino on AVR -> Bare ATmega8 -> STM32 -> SAMD -> New tinyAVR -> DSPIC. Some NIOS2-oriented classwork in the middle there along with Lattice Mico8
Awesome! Thanks for sharing this!

You're a talented guy Greidi, and I'm looking forward to what you plan on doing next with all that skill and creativity. Best of luck and I subscribed just so I can follow your journey.
Thank you so much Mark! I really appreciate all the support! Cheers!
Awesome video. I'm currently in my 3rd year of WSU
I like the idea of being an embedded software engineer, however, my school doesn't have an engineering department. Is it difficult to get a job in your field with a computer science degree? My cs degree has classes on embedded systems, computer architecture, a/c circuts, and digital electronics on top of the normal software developer oriented classes if that helps and I intend on taking all of these.
Thants great from you ! From DR Congo ! I’m also a electronic embedded software engineer
Thank you! Cheers!
ATmega2560-> ATSAM3X8E-> TMS320F280049C->ESP32, most of the time I worked on motor control and working on embedded systems for a company. I am having the similar mentality to you.
Thanks siva for sharing!
Teensy 2.0 --> ESP32 --> SAMDW25 custom PCBA --> STM32F767. Trying to get a job in Embedded Software development right now.
Nice! Good luck with the job adventure - you got this!!
@@GreidiAjalik Thanks Greidi, really appreciate it, just gave an interview today which went good, hoping I'll make the cut!

I'm watching this video on campus (not too far from Tilson's HQ in Maine) exploring career opportunities post grad school 😂Small world! Thanks for sharing your journey!
so good keep in touch with your inner mind
I'm surprised you didn't have interactions with SEL during your time at WSU. did you apply for any positions there?
wow idk why I didn't see your channel before.. So interesting for embedded beginner. Currently I'm trying to learn stm32. Question for u: what do u think about networking and linux knowlage in embedded? Hello from Ukraine :)
Heyyy! Thank you so much for the kind words! Short answer for you: personally I think both are important and valuable - especially in IoT area. Stay safe! Cheers!!
I really love your videos as they motivate me to pursue my dream of being an embedded software engineer which I wanted to give up on.
I studied CS at undergraduate level and I've enrolled for ms embedded software. I am good at coding and logics, very good with arduino and did a project with consist of realtime data sharing between the arduino and mobile app I also developed. Is there any advice or roadmap you can give me?. Thank you so much
I'm really glad to hear this! Congrats on getting into your MS program and good luck with it! Thank you for the support! Check out my video here to learn about what skills you might need for an entry level embedded SWE. th-cam.com/video/HFmGk4oufj8/w-d-xo.html
For an electronics engineer it is very hard to choose one of from hardware
and hardware programing. As an electronics engineer I love both of them and that's the problem of an electronics engineer😢
Hey Greidi, I will be joining master's in Electrical and computer engineering from fall'22 , as my main focus is to learn core fundamental regarding boards. Please guide me from where can I start learning circuit designing and more about processors?
Hey! Good luck with your masters! You can always start on TH-cam, Coursera, or Udemy… :) hope this helps a bit!
Hi Greidi, thanks for sharing your story! Did you mention that you were in Nanjing? I'm living in Nanjing after around 5 years in the US. Greetings!
Just found about you and i am glad that i did. Can i get some help, i am trying to make arduino based projects but i have to copy code from net can you tell me where i can learn arduino programming in deep so i can write on my own ( i know basics)
Hello, Greidi! It's cool that you worked at Alstom, I've been working there for 8 years, it's a great company for those who like engineering. Today I am an Electrical Engineer, I graduated 6 months ago. =D Great video.
Just started my ECE in India, currently in second year, now they started teaching us about electronics, first year was basic science math
Good luck with your studies! Cheers!
@@GreidiAjalik thanks
Hiya, that's great. I need your suggestion that how to get into this field from entry level
I'm a second year student in an engineering college studying electronics and tc. I am interested in embedded systems. And the syllabus doesn't seam to help, it is much more theoretical than any practical knowledge. Where do I start?
Can you please do a video about the Miniature Impedance Spectrometer, it sounds very interesting :)
Hey guys. Im just starting in the embedded systems world, actually on may next year. I am Manufacturing engineer so my experience is in manufacturing process. Any advice ? or where to start on the programming part? Also what kind of laptop/PC should I get?. To be honest I am exited about going deeper into this world of microcontrollers, my main goal is to merge both worlds.
Here's a quick overview for what you'd need to learn to get started: th-cam.com/video/HFmGk4oufj8/w-d-xo.html
Hope this helps a bit...
How did you find all this wonderful stock footage? :O
How important would you say is an understanding of "circuits boards" or "electronics" for embedded engineering? I have a good understanding of software development, writing code, designing systems but no experience with embedded systems. I guess you have APIs to the sensors or motors you need to control to get data but is that really all you need in the end?
Depends on how "high level" you work in the code. If you're writing drivers as an embedded software engineer, you'll need to understand how to read schematics, understand some about circuit boards (if you need to probe signals real time on the board), and maybe a little bit about electronics. I can tell you, that you can get away without really not needing any of that - I worked at Alstom and all I did was high level programming... never even touched or saw the real circuit boards I was writing code for. Here's a quick video of pretty much of all low level protocols you should be familiar with for embedded software engineering: th-cam.com/video/HFmGk4oufj8/w-d-xo.html
@@GreidiAjalik Thank you :)
no problem! :)
Hello just about to start a course in embedded programing... have two questions
First can a embedded programmer work as a software engineer?
Second studying embedded programming in an institute for two yrs is ok??
Because it's One yrs of studying and the second yr is just co-op are these enough to get a job ??
Ur response will be appreciated
I'm a E&C engineering student (bangalore) in final year. I'm placed in Embedded system based company. I have 7months to join the company. How can I plan to prepare before joining the company, to learn from scratch best source ??
Started with 8051 in 2007, Than Atmega->ESP32->RP2040->STM32!!! Love and Crazy about embedded systems!
Liked and subbed sir 👍
It feels really awesome when a man who is computer tech genius but acknowledges and thanks Jesus Christ, that's really excellent ❤
Is it possible to get into embedded programming as a bootcamp grad without a stem degree? The relationship between the electronics and programming really catches my interest.
You're awesome :) !
Hi thanks for sharing your journey
I am Haris from Pakistan
I am currently doing electrical engineering specifically electronics and telecommunication engineering
I love electronics and coding
I am also learning about microcontrollers(about arduino specifically)
I literally love my EE field and along with that I love programming so much
Due to some responsibilities I want to make money and I wanted to earn money by the things I like
I just wanted to ask you can I make money by doing online projects using arduino, about embedded systems and other stuff related to electronics
Will you tell me what roadmap I have to follow for doing that?
Thank you for your support!! Yep! You can, but you might be forced to sell your work for super cheap to enter market. Sites like Upwork and Fiverr would be great places to find some customers. Cheers!
I started with C and then C++ by myself then i got admit in university did Bachelor degree in computer and I don't like web development so i confused what i like to do cuz there is more demand of web and nothing else in my country.
Great Video inspires me
Awesome bro 😎
Hey guys, i am a mech engineer and wanted to learn microcontrollers to do robotics, i know a little bit of arduino but this field is so confusing, what are the subjects i need to study so that i can create a basic- moderate level circuit by myself and integrate microcontrollers into it and atleast understand the overall processes taking place. A reply is greatly appreciated.
Hey! It sounds like you might be trying to take on too much at once. If you want to focus on designing PCBA boards (which is electrical engineering heavy) you'd want to find some sources on TH-cam or Google to get started with that (I'm not that familiar with it - maybe someone else can give a better recommendation here). Although if you'd want to focus on learning programming microcontrollers and trying to understand what basic skillset you might need to get going... check this video out... th-cam.com/video/HFmGk4oufj8/w-d-xo.html - Hope this helps a little bit... let me know if you have other questions :) Cheers!
@@GreidiAjalik hello sir, thanks a lot for the speedy reply, your vedio really clarified my doubts, i got to know that i am more interested in the uses of the microcontrollers than how they work exactly. ❤ thanks a lot, hope you put out more great vedios like this.
I did pre engineering on industrial electronics, im a software engineer now, and want to go back to electronics but somehow forgot it and its a struggle coming back lol
BEng EE, Huawei wireless Engineer, worked with arduino, raspberry pi and currently STM32F1 doing Msc EE Computer option
Great! Thanks for sharing and good luck with your masters!
Where to actually learn programming STM32 actually. Is there any individual course for it
I just finished my 3rd year, it seemed like a waste of money when I look back on how many power engineering units I had to do which were so boring and repetitive, but the rest of the units were pretty interesting though.
How long does it take for you to study EE in Community college and transfer to 4 year university? I am also studying engineering program at CC this year. Would like to know the duration time of studying at CC. Some people say it takes 3 years for engineering students to transfer 4 year university. Is it really true ?
Good question! It took me 3 years because I did mechanical engineering associates degree as well... otherwise if I would had been able to do it 2 years. If you want to do it in 2 years, you gotta stay on schedule and always take full load+ classes.
Hello, i am set to start studying mechatronics this fall. I have heard that lots of mechatronics engineers end up in embedded software engineering. Is that really the case ? Thanks
Interesting question, I’m not sure if that’s true… if you’re going into robotics and end up working on software… then yeah you’re in there basically. I personally haven’t met many people with mechatronics degree here in USA
is there a code for both synthetic 50/60hz oscillator using arduino?
Hallo, kindly need you guys help, can you give me advice what kind of industry or company or vendor should I work for if I have deep understand on embedded system
Is it possible for someone who has a physics background to become an embedded system engineer?
Basys3 -> MSP432 -> arduino -> beaglebone -> pic32 -> raspberry pi

Hi Greidi Ajalik , i have a question, Is it possible to get in Embedded System Development with BS of Computer Science degree ?
Hi! yes it is! :)
This Wednesday I will have a interview for embedded software engineer position. I hope it will be a start for my career!
Good luck with the interview!
Have you looked at Rust? It should be a great language for embedded development as a replacement for C++. The device support is not where they want it to be yet, but it will definitely become more and more relevant to the industry in the next few years.
I've heard of Rust and seen it being picked up in some places where I worked. As long as it will make people's lives easier, I'm sure it will become more popular.
