Summary

With over eight years’ experience in industry, I have involved in designing and developing seven types of measuring and protecting products which are already widely used in industry. Especially, the abundant hardware design experience filled me with the knowledge of PCB layout, EMC design, and industrial standards of EMC and EMI test. Moreover, project planning and management, quality management, and customer services were also significant components in my past work experience.
